Among the works in the catalog, the “Astylar Cross of the Pantheon”, the large processional cross, which is Pantheon’s permanent art collection.

Pace’s works are created with found objects and thousands of rare pieces of costume jewelry, primarily vintage, which the artist collected worldwide, thus creating a sort of “Industrial Archeology Research” applied to the decoration of the body of our times. Pace’s work reflects a refined and aestheticizing language with which the artist reinterprets many of our psychic realities. Inspired by different sources such as hight fashion, history and decorative arts, the artist uses different techniques influenced by the iconography of mass society, philosophy and psychoanalysis. Joseph Pace is one of the the leading exponents of “filtranisme”, the philosophical and artistic neo existentialist current that he founded in Paris in the mid 80s. His work is part of an artistic and intellectual path through which the artist reinterprets our deepest psychic realities.
