Bruce Nauman: Contrapposto Studies
The exhibition assumes as a starting point a recent series of video work by the renowned artist
The solo exhibition at Punta della Dogana dedicated to Bruce Nauman focuses on a series of recent video installations that he developed over the last five years, related to a single-channel video from 1968, “Walk with Contrapposto.” From here, the title of the solo show “Bruce Nauman: Contrapposto Studies”, curated by Carlos Basualdo, the Keith L. and Katherine Sachs Senior Curator of Contemporary Art at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and Caroline Bourgeois, curator at Pinault Collection, in close collaboration with the artist.
The show also includes a comprehensive collection of the artist’s earlier performances, installations and videos that provide the overall context for the recent work.
Throughout his career, Bruce Nauman has continued to experiment with different artistic languages – from photography to performance, sculpture and video – exploring their potential in a body of work that relentlessly explores the human condition while interrogating the very definition of what constitutes artistic practice.
