Farah Atassi (Brussels, 1981) The Shadow, 2026 Oil on canvas 195.3 x 114.3 cm Signed and dated on the back Provenance: the artist's studio Exhibitions: Farah Atassi, 'Metamorphosis', 26 June-31 July 2026, Almine Rech New York 'The Shadow' comes from a recent body of work in which Farah Atassi explored themes of metamorphosis and freedom. The central figure is a chimeric half woman-half flower that appears to flourish before our very eyes. Daphne - the nymph turned into a laurel tree to escape the god Apollo - comes to mind, a representation of transformation and transcendence. In 'The Shadow' the flower woman is organic, yet sculptural, retaining a distinct humanity that the artist has simplified, symbolised. While the composition is dreamlike and ethereal, a bold shadow brings a touch of realism, anchoring the twisting form to the pictorial plane. This work is a painting within a painting, a formal choice that allows Atassi to contrast two distinct realms while also interrogating the metamorphic potential of art. Notes of Magritte’s uncanny, atmospheric beauty emerge as the flower woman in 'The Shadow' is captured in the act of liberating herself from a canvas, striking out into the rosy dawn.

Heutink Ikonen
Year Icon (Menologion) Russia, late 19th century Egg tempera on gesso on linen-covered wood 35.5 x 30.5 cm Provenance: private collection, Germany This beautifully painted year icon (menologion) brings together the entire Orthodox liturgical year in a single composition. The twelve months are divided into separate sections, each depicting the saints and feast days commemorated throughout the calendar year. At the centre of the composition is the Anastasis (the Resurrection of Christ), surrounded by scenes relating to the Church’s movable feasts, including the Ascension and Pentecost, as well as scenes from Christ’s Passion. Along the edge are numerous venerated images of the Mother of God - each associated with its own feast day in the church year. This icon stands out for its unusually compact size. Despite its modest dimensions, the painter has succeeded in incorporating an exceptionally extensive iconographic programme without compromising on clarity or refinement. Hundreds of figures, scenes and inscriptions are depicted with remarkable precision and virtuosity. Thanks to its good preservation, even the smallest of details remain clearly visible.
