Das MASI präsentiert die erste umfassende Retrospektive der US-amerikanischen Künstlerin Kaari Upson (1970–2021), die als eine der eindringlichsten und eigenständigsten Stimmen der zeitgenössischen amerikanischen Kunst gilt.

Upsons Schaffen zeichnet sich durch eine bemerkenswerte Vielfalt an Medien aus, die von Skulpturen, Videos, Zeichnungen bis hin zu Installationen reicht. Die Werke der Künstlerin beschäftigen sich auf komplexe Weise mit Themen wie Identität, Körper, Beziehung, Krankheit und Verlust.

Die Ausstellung vereint zentrale Arbeiten der Künstlerin, darunter die Serien, die mit dem berühmten Larry Project verbunden sind – einem Werkkomplex, der den Beginn ihrer Karriere entscheidend geprägt hat – sowie die monumentale Installation THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS OUTSIDE, die erstmals auf der Biennale von Venedig 2019 gezeigt wurde.

Die Ausstellung Kaari Upson. Dollhouse – Eine Retrospektive wurde vom Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Humlebæk, in Zusammenarbeit mit der Kunsthalle Mannheim und dem Museo d’arte della Svizzera italiana realisiert.

Kuratiert von: Francesca Benini und Taisse Grandi Venturi
