In one work, under the heading I Love, the sign of a snake can be found next to the emblem for justice, with an orange spot for the corresponding color next to two stars as a symbol for astrology. \u003ci\u003eNiki de Saint Phalle A-Z\u003c\/i\u003e takes the same liberty and puts the many facets of Saint Phalle's work into the order of the alphabet. This logical order is deceptive, though. From A as in AIDS to Z as in Zurich Angel, from B as in Bride to V as in Vanitas, a mosaic of concepts emerges that explores the various levels of meaning in her manifold oeuvre and playfully engages them in mutual commentary.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eKatharina Sykora\u003c\/b\u003e (born 1955) is a German art historian and curator specializing in the intersection of painting, photography and film; visual constructions of gender and authorship; and mind and affect.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag GmbH \u0026 Co KG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46324423786737,"sku":"9783775754378","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/5433\/7265\/files\/9783775754378_p0.jpg?v=1764961133","url":"https:\/\/shop.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783775754378","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
