The press release says the 2 artists association is unexpected and unprecedented: well... Nothing is said about what has driven the Gallery to do so.
It's not complicated to appreciate the "connection"- profiles, body, shapes, flesh, curves, texture, shadow and light, the sculptural nature, and, in the end, the allure that stands out.
I've seen last Fall, at La Punta Della Dogana in Venezia, a somehow more impactful installation, with the same idea/intention behind:
With the same serie of black-dark photographs from Hiroshi Sugimoto, were displayed, in one single long "corridor", giving at both extremities on the Grand Canale, lying on the floor, Maurizio Cattelan's famous white marble wrapped bodies (above): here, Sugimoto's models without head, disconnected from the human body, are direcly confronting Cattelan's deads.
