Dara Birnbaum
An extensive survey exhibition dedicated to the work of the American artist internationally acclaimed for her pioneering video, media, and installation work.
The exhibition comprises a selection of single-channel videos, sound works, multi-channel installations, photographs, and 3-D specialized prints on Plexiglas as realized by the artist from 1975 to 2022. This project reveals her deep exploration of the cultural intersections of video art, television, and consumer technologies and – among other themes – the gendered biases reflected in the representation of women in popular culture.
The exhibition path conceived by the artist for the two floors of the Osservatorio doesn’t follow a chronological order. However, by employing a carefully selected series of works, it illustrates the wide range of media and artistic languages employed by Birnbaum in her practice and explores the recurrent topics of her ongoing creative work.
