    Anthony Meier Fine Arts: Janine Antoni - Turn.

    Comment by AB: It's all about the vision for Janine Antoni, here homaging the phase of childbirth called "crowning" and the wondrous physiological changes immediately preceding it. Crowning is the point at which the top of an about-to-be-born baby's head first appears to the world with the pelvis essentially forming a crown around it. Her art represents the moment of this transition from "inside" to "outside," as significant as any moment in life can get. With so much else occupying our minds these days, reflecting on the miracle of life tends not to be too high of a priority. Antoni's installation suggests that perhaps occasional reassessments are in order. Good art; go see.
