About the artist

Monica Bonvicini Among the most important artists of her generation, Monica Bonvicini’s evocative and thought-provoking sculptures, installations, texts, photographs, videos and public projects explore the relationship between architecture, gender and power. For the past three decades, Bonvicini’s multifaceted practice has confronted issues of institutional critique and the politics of space. While the idea of the built environment is central to Bonvicini’s research so is the concept of destruction. Her work aims to expose and destabilize outdated social and political structures in ironic and playful ways. Dry-humored and direct, Bonvicini’s art never refrains from establishing a critical connection with the sites where it is exhibited, the materials that comprise it, and the roles of spectator and creator.
