These often-monumental paintings play with light and reflection to create delicate, immersive compositions. Published in conjunction with an exhibit curated by art historian Éric de Chassey, 'Floating Worlds' spotlights these subtly exquisite landscape works from 1989 to 2020.Unlike conventional landscapes, his paintings contain minimal recessive space: 'You look at one, and you float inside of it,' says Katz. The artist gathers inspiration from the lakes and forests of Maine, where he works en plein air in the style of the French Impressionists. His work can be understood as an evolved Impressionism, pursuing a flatter, more opaque form of immediacy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9782910055837.
