The Ashes of Art History

2020
Wood and glass box, adhesive and ashes
15 × 21 cm

Ernst Gombrich’s The Story of Art reduced to ashes and kept in a wood and glass box. Unable to change what she was taught during her training, the artist burns the textbook that for decades helped make women invisible in art history. The piece joins the work of artists such as María Gimeno and Diana Larrea, who have started from the same book.
