From Matisse Etchings to Surreal Bear Chairs, Masterpiece London Offers a Master Class in Eclectic Collecting<\/h3>\n

Dancing With Marina<\/strong><\/p>\n

The high priestess of performance art, Marina Abramovi\u0107, feels very present at Masterpiece.<\/p>\n

Visitors are greeted by her new immersive installation,\u00a0Five Stations of Maya Dance\u00a0(2018), a series of translucent alabaster portraits in deep relief with LED lighting that evokes something of her charismatic presence. A collaboration between Lisson Gallery and high-tech art production company Factum Arte, the work is part of an edition of three, plus three artist\u2019s proofs.<\/p>\n

Salom\u00e9 Prada of Factum Arte tells artnet News that the edition presented at the fair is on hold for a museum. (Five panels are priced around \u00a3400,000, or $524,000, in total, not including the installation designed by the architect Charlotte Skene Catling.) Prada says that the studio is also working on life-sized portraits of Abramovi\u0107, this time carved into a form of plastic. All will be revealed at the artist\u2019s major solo show at the Royal Academy of Arts in London in 2020.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a sculpture created by the Italian artist Gilberto Arrivabene Valenti and Factum Arte\u2019s founder, Adam Lowe, is tailor-made for a cross-collector seeking something classical with a contemporary twist. Realized\u00a0using both digital technology and traditional Venetian glass-making techniques, the pair\u2019s interpretation of Canova\u2019s reclining nude Paolina Borghese has just been acquired by London\u2019s Victoria & Albert Museum for an undisclosed sum. The work,\u00a0Paolina after Antonio Canova\u00a0(2018), is part of an edition of 12.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][vc_column_text]\"\"<\/p>\n
