” (…) Drawing inspiration from the emblematic representation of working-class struggle and the collective’s emancipatory force in Giuseppe Pellizza da Volpedo’s Il quarto stato (The Fourth Estate) (1901), Rabbia’s more-than-five-meter-long triptych depicts a new kind of collective—one linked by an intricate root system that binds each figure together. Here, the protesting crowd is made up of women, led by a central figure reminiscent of the multi-breasted Artemis of Ephesus, their regenerative feminine energy radiating outward in luminous auras, offered as a possible form of redemption in an age of political and social divisiveness, where humans have lost all sense of empathy and solidarity.” (Elisa Carollo. Excerpt from “Don’t Miss These Five Museum-Grade Works in Art Basel Miami Beach’s Meridians Sector“, Observer, December 3, 2025)
