The Tree from The Last Days of Pompeii, 2001

Description

Eleanor Antin, a pioneering conceptual and multidisciplinary artist, will exhibit a series of fourteen new large-scale color photographs titled The Last Days of Pompeii. For over thirty years, Antin has been engaging in a dialogue with history, and her new photographs evoke narratives of sensual, decadent Rome seen through the screen of English and French salon painting (Alma-Taddema, Lord Leighton, Puvis de Chavannes…) in which the two great colonial powers tantalized themselves with their dream of the opulence, sensuality, and wickedness of the ancient power that preceded them.
