Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The first comprehensive monograph on the work of Lena Herzog, the Russian-born conceptual and multidisciplinary photographer and artistThis first comprehensive monograph on the work of Lena Herzog is an exhaustive review of three decades of activity, described in essays by pro- fessors Silvia Burini and Giuseppe Barbieri. Lena Herzog's undaunted and engaging look spans over boundaries and chasms between different levels of life, time, and memory. Her work investigates the universal mystery of being human, from the Cabinets of Wonder and Curiosities of the 18th and 19th centuries to the hollowed out rock formations atop of tepuis in Amazonia, from the deep rituals of the West to the emptiness of nameless lands in the Far East.The various portfolios, here transversally arranged, provide a fascinating cartography of our time and history. Through innovative experimentation, Lena Herzog fuses Renaissance engraving practices, early techniques of developing and printing photographic images, and cutting edge virtual reality and immersive technologies. In her latest projects, she confronts and denounces the ex- tinction of thousands of languages and foretells the possible and final collapse of the planet. These are images between shadow and light, which, as in Goya, pursue the truth of things, gestures, and faces, and in which we find echoes of her childhood phantoms at the foothills of the Ural Mountains.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The life and work of the talented Armenian artist known for his unique brightly coloured styleThe life and work of Haroutiun Galentz (1910-1967), the talented Armenian artist, are a testament to resilience and the enduring power of creativity. Born in 1910, Galentz began his career in Lebanon during the French Mandate, a period that spanned four decades before his untimely death in 1967. His journey took him from a displaced and traumatized youth, shaped by the horrors of the Armenian Genocide, to a recognized and influential figure in the Soviet Union, where Galentz moved after World War II, seeking a reconnection with his homeland. Galentz's early artistic influences were drawn from the French painters who had settled in the Levant, most notably George Michelet and George Cyr. From these figures, Galentz developed a unique and vivid style, characterized by bright colors and emotional depth, which eventually garnered the admiration of leading artists and intellectuals. His work flourished during the cultural "Thaw" in the Soviet Unionan era of relative relaxation in the strict censorship that followed the death of Joseph Stalin. Intellectuals and patrons such as the poets Ilya Erenburg and Alexander Gitovich championed Galentz's art, helping him overcome the obscurity he faced during his early years in the Soviet Union and elevating him to prominence.

Brossura. Condition: new. Vicenza, Palazzo Leoni Montanari, 18 ottobre 2017 - 15 aprile 2018. A cura di Giuseppe Barbieri e Silvia Burini. Cornuda, 2017; br., pp. 144, ill. col., cm 24x28. Celebrando in modo del tutto originale il primo centenario della Rivoluzione d'Ottobre, la mostra ha come protagonista il dittico di Grisha Bruskin (1945) intitolato Fundamental'nyj Leksikon (Lessico Fondamentale, 1985-1990), opera del grande artista contemporaneo russo esposta per la prima volta in Italia. Affiancano le due tele una significativa selezione di disegni preparatori, nonché due sequenze di piccole sculture, in porcellana e bronzo, una sorta di maquette ex post, che rappresentano in forma tridimensionale le figure dipinte. La presenza di due icone-menologio appartenenti alla raccolta di icone russe di Intesa Sanpaolo, conservata presso le Gallerie d'Italia - Palazzo Leoni Montanari, museo della Banca a Vicenza, permette di approfondire un aspetto del processo creativo di Bruskin, evidenziando tra i santi cristiani e gli eroi sovietici profonde connessioni, formali e concettuali.
