From Frieze to the Venice Biennale to Art Basel Miami, Greta Schodl is known for her quiet strength.

For seven decades, the minimalist artist has been exploring themes of existence and identity through her studies of texture and medium.

Schodl's art is grounding and unyielding, engaging each viewer through the power of its authentic simplicity.

From now until February 28, 2025, at the Richard Saltoun gallery in Rome, you'll find an exhibit of Schodl's storied works from her 70-year career.

Included at the exhibit are Firenze 1966 (a stained curtain from a devastating flood); chunks of marble with her chiseled inscriptions; and an array of works featuring "gold leaf, embroidery, and layers of text on surfaces like handmade paper, books, personal letters, and domestic objects."

Starting January 2025, you can see more of Schodl's art.

Schodl, who lives in Bologna but was born in Austria, will have a solo show at Phileas - The Austrian Office for Contemporary Art in Vienna.

According to Phileas, it will be her first solo exhibit in Austria in over 40 years.
