Having digested the traditional koan literature, which he has taught for many years, Zen teacher John Tarrant cheerfully goes beyond it. "You’ve never read a Zen book like this before. He weaves his deep immersion in Buddhist practice, Western psychology, and the arts into a unique yet completely authentic story of the Zen life and its mysteries." -Melvin McLeod, editor-in-chief, the Shambhala Sun 27 (color - detail)."John Tarrant is one of the most interesting minds in American Buddhism.

The Kiss of the Rhinoceros is Horn’s invitation to go on this journey. The exhibition The Milk of Dreams takes Leonora Carrington’s otherworldly creatures, along with other figures of transformation, as companions on an imaginary journey through the metamorphoses of bodies and definitions of the human. It is a world where everyone can change, be transformed, become something or someone else. Alemani stated The Milk of Dreams takes its title from a book by Leonora Carrington (1917–2011) in which the Surrealist artist describes a magical world where life is constantly re-envisioned through the prism of the imagination. Its inclusion in the exhibition The Milk of Dreams curated by Cecilia Alemani for the 59th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia could not be more appropriate. The sculpture The Kiss of the Rhinoceros exemplifies Horn’s oeuvre and symbolic world inhabited with objects, often mechanized, that are liberated from their defined materiality and transposed into ever-changing metaphors touching on mythical, historical, literary and spiritual imagery. To this day, the impact of this exhibition continues to be enormously influential. The exhibition was introduced as the first truly international exhibition, bringing together artists from all over the world. Rebecca Horn conceived the now iconic sculpture The Kiss of Rhinoceros in 1989 to be included in the groundbreaking exhibition Les Magiciens de la Terre curated by Jean Hubert Martin, Director of the Musée National d’Art Moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou, in Paris.
