描述
Lavishly produced publication with a silkscreen cover and two tip-ins to accompany the eponymous exhibition, for which Katz used paintings from different periods to highlight the diverse connections and dialogues between the works.
How may images inhabit shared surroundings and one’s own mind, and how may they influence past and future patterns of thinking? The exhibition curated by Allison Katz brought to the fore existential and philosophical questions that are key to deciphering the power of painting – from the autonomy of the medium as a discrete object to its site-specificity and mutability in relation to a display apparatus. For Katz, surface is depth, and the frame is a portal for making sense of the world. Bringing together works of art and objects from different eras, the exhibition celebrated the the inexhaustible power of painting to generate new dialogues across time.
