Leda Catunda and Henrot & Hoy at Fondazione ICA Milano
Fondazione ICA in Milan opens its autumn season with two vibrant exhibitions: Brazilian artist Leda Catunda's solo show 'Euforia' and a collaborative project by Camille Henrot and Estelle Hoy titled 'Jus d'orange'. Both projects emerged from difficult periods—the pandemic for Catunda, and personal failures for Henrot and Hoy—but convey optimism and resilience. Catunda's works on the ground floor feature patchworks of reused fabrics like sheets, tablecloths, and denim, critiquing consumerism through natural forms such as drops and beetle shells. The centerpiece is 'Gotas Trasparentes' (2020-21), a hanging installation that diffuses light and color. Upstairs, Henrot and Hoy transform the space with orange walls, text panels, paintings, and bronze sculptures of orange peels that resemble dancing figures. The exhibition narrates a friend's real estate failure and encourages overcoming adversity. Both shows run concurrently at Fondazione ICA Milano.
