Josef Albers: Meditations

Edited by Gabriella Belli and Nicholas Fox Weber

Published on the occasion of the exhibition at Villa Panza, Varese, Italy (April 9, 2025–January 10, 2027), this catalogue features texts by Gabriella Belli, Elaine de Kooning, Marta Spanevello, Colm Tóibín, and Nicholas Fox Weber, with a new poem by Julie Agoos. The exhibition, highlighting thirty paintings from Albers’s Homage to the Square and Variant series, set within the eighteenth-century rooms of the Villa Panza, shows Albers’s extraordinary ability to weigh color impact and induce three-dimensional motion in a flat surface.

The catalogue is also available from Magonza editore.
