Crivelli's saint is no robust hero, but a slim boy who must use all his might to wield his heavy sword. The jutting shapes of his armor are echoed in the towers of the hill town in the background.

Indeed, the face, though beautifully lit with evocative shadows, is almost expressionless. The painting is all about costume: the plumed cap, silk scarf, and jacket suggest that this might be an elegant sitter, perhaps even an historic personage.

Maurizio Cannavacciuolo, too, treats patterns and color in a very eclectic fashion. Designs inspired by Edo textiles from Japan and Cuban tiles from Old Havana in this Façade are all part of the artist’s multicultural vision. The elaborately overlapping drawings and patterns relate a science fiction narrative, drawing on cultural trivia, emotion, and aesthetics to deliver a witty and provocative message about life, culture, and consumption in the 21st century. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this installation, the colonization of Earth by Martians is told generations later by a many-armed teacher, the product of Human-Martian interbreeding. In the early years of the invasion, when the Martians entered the empty Human houses, they discovered flickering television sets. They were fascinated by the hypnotic, repetitive images, white noise, and static emitted by the blank screens. The Television becomes a Martian cult object. Five vignettes tell a part of the story including a scene set in a fictional performance hall at the Gardner Museum.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCannavacciuolo first came to the Gardner Museum in 2003 as an Artist-in-Residence.
