In Four Mediterranean Capitals: Rome, Constantinople, Palermo, and Venice. Essays in Architecture and Visual Experience, William Tronzo brings together insights into these major late ancient and medieval capitals to uncover their common visual vocabulary of civic space, architecture, and symbolic meaning. He delves into the viewer’s experience of mosaic, sculpture, drapery, revetment and stone, of wall, dome, and portal, of street and forum to reexamine how historic buildings helped shape the experience of the civic, the imperial, and the divine manifested in urban life and daily movement.

This issues is co-edited by PhD alum Noni Brynjolson and includes an essay by PhD student Leila Abdelrazaq. Over the past decade, FIELD has remained committed to providing independent critical analysis of activist and engaged and art practices, filling a significant void in contemporary art criticism.

Best Practice, San Diego, CA
Both artists utilize materials and imagery that imply the physical hands or touch the objects once felt, as well as the traces and resonances of these touches. Their emphasis on fragments of personal archives, notes, gifts, and recorded memories aligns with their overlapping themes of queerness, (in)visibility, material memory, and resisting archival violence.

Repatriación Voluntaria [Voluntary Repatriation] brings together a group of recent works in which Rubén Ortiz Torres (Mexico, 1964) revisits questions that have accompanied his practice for decades: the construction of identity, the circulation of symbols, and the instability of origins themselves. Situated within the cultural space that connects Mexico and the United States, the exhibition begins with a deceptively simple question: what does it mean to return?

David Kordansky Gallery is pleased to present Tom’s Stretch, an exhibition of works spanning over eighty years by more than seventy artists engaging with Tom of Finland’s radical ability to imagine a physique—and a world—that did not yet exist in popular culture. By channeling private fantasy into virtuosic drawings, Tom of Finland (Touko Laaksonen, 1920–1991) created a libidinal realm in which freedom and pleasure were the reigning tenets.
