Proof: Francisco Goya, Sergei Eisenstein, Robert Longo

The English‑language catalogue of the exhibition “Proof” brings together works by Francisco Goya, Sergei Eisenstein, and Robert Longo. Published to mark the Garage exhibition of the same name, the book offers insight into the singularity of vision through which artists can reflect social, cultural, and political complexities of their times. While Goya served church and king, Eisenstein the state, and Longo emerged during the rise of the contemporary art market — the dominant benefactors of each period — they all rose to prominence through developing nuanced practices that challenged expectations and demand. This richly‑illustrated catalogue is structured around twenty‑two triptychs created by Longo using Goya’s etchings, stills from Eisenstein’s films, and his own works.
