CHARTA

(P/B) FRANCESCO GENNARI
Stabilized trees, fossil vertebrae of whales that lived millions of years ago, clods of earth containing living creatures painted gold and images of metaphysical subjects photographed through glass or reflected in mirrors. This is the world as reconstructed by Francesco Gennari, who concentrates his work on the spiritual idea of an art that can recreate the philosophical relations, linked to the mechanisms of our visual and conceptual perception, between man and nature.

(P/B) MARINA ABRAMOVIC
This new monograph documents seven consecutive, groundbreaking nights of monumental, solo, body-art performances by the internationally renowned artist, Marina Abramovic, during the Fall of 2005 in the famous rotunda of New York City's Guggenheim Museum.

The works include reenactments of Vito Acconci's Seedbed (1972), in which the ar...

ALEX KATZ (P/B)
A selection of paintings by this contemporary master, who redefined portraiture and landscape in the 1960s. Presaging both Pop and Minimalist sensibilities, Katz's works are quintessential examples of style as content, succinctly capturing the sensibility of their time. His paintings make the familiar strange and privilege perception over received concepts. They are a shorthand provocation, an emotional and visual response to human experience.
