Paloma Varga Weisz
Root of a Dream

By means of a distinctive iconography that combines references to Italian and German Renaissance art, psychoanalysis, private recollections, and an underlying fascination with the human (especially female) body, this artist creates complex and poetic installations that lead the spectator into a contemplative mode of viewing, poised between dream and reality. Based on a poem by Paul Celan, Root of a Dream reveals Varga Weisz’s constant attention to the relationship between memory, erasure, and the re-surfacing of recollections.

Published on the occasion of the first major retrospective in an Italian institution dedicated to German artist Paloma Varga Weisz at Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea (October, 2015 - January, 2016). With contributions by Marianna Vecellio, Jarrett Gregory, and Alessandro Rabottini, accompanied by a vast selection of exhibition views.
