The Argentinian artist Luis Fernando Benedit became an international sensation after his 1972 solo exhibition at MoMA, which featured Fitotrón, a functioning greenhouse. Benedit died in 2011, but today he remains as relevant as ever due to his prescient fascination with ecology and the artificial world. The Institute for Studies on Latin America (ISLAA) presents the first large-scale survey of Benedit’s career since that MoMA show. It includes more than 40 pieces that have never been displayed in the United States—works on canvas and bio-art habitats for plants, bees, and snails in Plexiglas cases. Benedit fuses contemporary art with the natural world. —Lucy Horowitz
