Sebastian Spreng - Anthony
Ardavin Gallery, Atlanta
The protagonist of Witness,
Sebastian Spreng's exhibition
in Atlanta, is the tree.
Firmly anchored on a horizon
that breathes between two
infinite and solitary planes,
these lonely trees, distilled
to their bare minimum, are
witnesses to the passage of
