The work of New Zealand artist Judy Millar was perfectly suited to Daniel Birnbaum's theme for the 53rd Venice Biennale, "making worlds"; for her painted and sculpted installation Giraffe Bottle Gun, Millar occupied La Maddalena, a circular church in Cannaregio, placing canvases throughout it. This catalogue documents the tensions in Millar's work between interiority and exteriority, large and small, the handmade and the digitally reproduced.
