One of the most prominent names in contemporary painting breaks apart the myth of the artist and her containment as an autonomous voice. To do so, Katz invites her paternal grandmother, the nonagenarian artist Edna Katz Silver, to include a suite of dynamic

scarves and frames crafted by Marconi’s ancestors – a lineage of picture-framers and scarf makers turned art dealers – she raises questions concerning inherited taste, vocation, and social standing.
