"From the prophetic early paintings of the 1980s to her groundbreaking digital works of the 1990s, the exhibition charts Treister’s evolution through key projects including those of her time-travelling alter ego Rosalind Brodsky, and the influential HEXEN 2.0 series, a Tarot deck and group of alchemical diagrams connecting cybernetics, surveillance, countercultural movements and internet histories. Her recent project, HEXEN 5.0 (2023-25) continues this trajectory, critically examining AI, the climate crisis, and quantum science."

"Now recognized as the ancestor of modern chemistry, alchemy is a mysterious and often misunderstood blend of science, philosophy, and spirituality. Alchemists were notorious for making artificial gold, but their impact extended far beyond their desire for noble metals. David Brafman, associate curator of rare books and curator of "The Art of Alchemy" at the Getty Research Institute, discusses how this medieval magic has had an enduring influence on scientific and artistic culture."

| Rasa: the Fluid Essence of Indian Thought |

By Alejandro Martinez Gallardo Redo
The term "rasa" has one of the most complex and nuanced semantic fields in the whole of Sanskrit literature. The meaning of rasa varies in the context of Vedic sacrifice, Indian alchemy. Āyurveda, aesthetic theory, religious devotionalism or Tantric ritual. In this paper I trace the evolution of the term, focusing on its etymology and on its different usages among different schools of thought. As David Gordon White observed "rasa was and remains the ‘fluid essence’ of Indian thought.”
