This exhibition catalogue features the written and printing paintings of six artists living in Italy. It is introduced with several critical essays. For example, Vincenzo Accame contributes an essay "The Relationship between Written and Painted Signs from the Viewpoint of an Aesthetic Communication in Perspective." The catalogue provides an illustration of a painting by Anna Guillot, "di cui cenere e inizio," held by the Sackner Archive, along with two detail views of this work. Gio Ferri writes in his essay, "Anna Guillot's obsessive and luminous surface is also made up of rifts and orders. She 'illustrates' the geological and archaeological component of the return journey. The dig and the passage through stratified sedimentations of writing to the sign, from calligraphic statement to painting. But the adventure of research, the journey into the deep beyond the surface, as they become revealed, under the imposition of systemised programming, reveal, first lightly, then explosively, the tense emotion of a discovery (even a frightening one) which does not hide its risks." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
