Digging Into the Guts: A Conversation with Damián Ortega

Through Negotiation: A Conversation with Shirley Tse

Crossed By Time: A Conversation with Hugo Aveta
For Hugo Aveta, who works and lives in Córdoba, Argentina, time, ghosts, and memories become conceptual raw material.

Dynamic Protagonists: A Conversation with Carola Zech
The Argentinian sculptor Carola Zech has spent over 25 years expanding the limits of sculpture, installation, and context.

Fluid Circulation: A Conversation with Holly Hendry

Getting Hyper-Real: A Conversation With Carole A. Feuerman
Serena is surviving on the median between uptown and downtown traffic on Manhattan’s Park Avenue at 36th Street, just a few blocks below Grand Central. There, she dwells in flawless, larger-than-life quiescence, her luxurious long fingers caressing the shiny blue inner tube that keeps her afloat atop a stone podium.
