Grantina's solo show at GAMeC in Bergamo represented a major evolution in her poetics, a decisive and coherent change of palette and pace compared to her amorphous in-situ installations that have characterized her work to date. A mural forms an open-ended structure with its potentially infinite combinations: It seems to breathe, constraining and distending the grounding of space.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book's structure mirrors this evolution, exploring a before, characterized by large-scale environmental installations in New York's New Museum, the Biennale di Venezia and in Palais de Tokyo, Paris, to name a few, and an after, when the artist's sculptural environments seem to shift their locus of perception.","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44099242688548,"sku":"9783775754200","price":95.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/9734\/0196\/files\/9783775754200.jpg?v=1778210488","url":"https:\/\/thamesandhudson.com.au\/products\/daiga-grantina","provider":"Thames \u0026 Hudson Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
