Works by Monica Bonvicini will be on view at the Contemporary Space Kula in Split, Croatia.
Among the most important artists of her generation, Monica Bonvicini’s (*1965, Venice) practice investigates the relationship between architecture, power structures, gender and space. Her research is translated into works that question the meaning of making art, the ambiguity of language, and the limits and possibilities connected to the ideal of freedom. Dry-humored, direct, and imbued with historical, political and social references, Bonvicini’s art never refrains from establishing a critical connection with the sites where it is exhibited, its materials, and the roles of spectator and creator.
Since her first solo exhibition at the California Institute of the Arts in 1991, her approach has formally evolved without betraying its analytical force and inclination to challenge the viewer’s perspective while taking hefty sideswipes at patriarchal, socio-cultural conventions.
