The exhibition brings together paintings by Victor (1948–2015) and Ekaterina Khromin. Residents of Miami, the Russian-born husband and wife chart an artistic territory quite their own, painting on bas-reliefs that are, in fact, collages of found objects. Their works reveal pioneering approaches to art-making created by the synergy with the technologies of art conservation.
