Germano Celant traces Rotella's work, in all of its diversified phases and periods from 1946 to the present, including the initial geometrical and pre-decollages works, the decollages and ...

Describing the work of the rising Berlin-based Swedish artist Nathalie Djurberg, Miuccia Prada and Patrizio Bertelli write in their introduction to this substantial new volume, "Her videos are characterized by small, animated clay figures that she uses to create surreal atmospheres and often grotesque stories.

A hallucinogenic subversion ...
