The Art of Adi Da Samraj

Large-format catalog published on the occasion of the collateral exhibition Transcendental Realism: The Art of Adi Da Samraj at the 52nd Biennale di Venezia 2007, Venice, Italy. The catalog presents over 25 stunning illustrations in color and black-and-white, including the fully fabricated works from Avatar Adi Da’s Spectra, Geome, and Oculus Suites, and a three-page gatefold of the magnificent Alberti’s Window. Also included are an Artist’s Statement by Adi Da Samraj, and generously illustrated essays by curator Achille Bonito Oliva and critic Peter Frank.

My images are about how Reality Is—and they are also about how Reality appears, in the context of natural perception, as a construction made of primary shaping-forces. My image-art is, therefore, not merely “subjectively” or, otherwise, “objectively” based. Rather, the images I make and do always tacitly and utterly coincide with Reality As It Is. Therefore, I have called the process of the image-art I made and do Transcendental Realism.
