Twin Exhibitions of Ader's Career in New York and London, New Works by YBA Artist, and Siglio's Calle Book
Two concurrent exhibitions examining the brief but influential career of Ader are presented in New York and London. The artist's practice investigates connections between intellectual, aesthetic, and bodily decoration. A separate show features new photographic and video pieces by a Young British Artist. Distorted forms in this display propose alternative perspectives on human anatomy. Semo creates new sculptures employing text and industrial materials with erotic undertones to engage and provoke viewers. This artist also reflects on her evolving artistic process and methodology. Siglio Press has released a publication documenting Sophie Calle's 1980 performance piece, where she trailed an unknown man through Venice. Another artist utilizes formalist techniques and psychedelic elements to examine the pursuit of liberation from individual and collective histories.
