Summary:
"Transmission: the art of Matta and Gordon Matta-Clark" presents the first comprehensive examination of the overlapping spheres of art and architecture in the work of two pioneering father and son artists: the Surrealist painter Matta (Roberto Sebastin Antonio Matta Echaurren) (1912-2002) and the multifaceted urban Conceptualist Gordon Matta-Clark (1943-1978). Organized by Betti-Sue Hertz, "Transmission" offers new perspectives on the impact of Matta's role in the development of late Surrealism and Matta-Clark's influence on the 1970s SoHo art scene. Both artists were originally trained as architects, and though they ostensibly rejected the profession in favor of art, each relied strongly on concepts of architectural space as they forged new practices in art. This illustrated publication compares Matta's metaphysical concepts and gestural pictorial practice with Matta-Clark's conceptually driven drawings and cut buildings; illustrates how aspects of Surrealism, especially as filtered through the work of Marcel Duchamp, were adopted by Matta-Clark and his circle; and explores the commonalities and differences in Matta's depictions of interior mindscapes and Matta-Clark's physical actions on buildings in the urban milieu. The catalogue presents essays and research by art historian Briony Fer, art critic Justo Pastor Mellado, architectural theorist Anthony Vidler, and the San Diego Museum of Art's curator of contemporary art, Betti-Sue Hertz.

Summary:
A pioneering conceptual and multidisciplinary artist, Antin has lately turned her attention to creating enormous photo-realist settings based on Greek and Roman history and mythology. These works, often displayed as two-page spreads, are both comic and psychologically complex re-enactments from literature: Roman Allegories, Last Days of Pompeii, and Helen s Odyssey.
