Pamela Rosenkranz Group show Istituto Svizzero, Roma 16 October 2020 - 31 January 2021 The group exhibition brings together six young artists from Switzerland who address the idea of hybridism through different media and narrative models. Pamela Rosenkranz (*1979/Altdorf, lives and works in Zurich and Steinhausen) shows three new paintings from the series “Sexual Power”, for which she consumes the synthetically produced substance Viagra while painting and mutates into a hybrid-like being by mixing her own human abilities with an artificially produced substance.

Pamela Rosenkranz: PUSH THE LIMITS
Pamela Rosenkranz Group show Fondazione Merz, Turin 07 September 2020 - 31 January 2021 PUSHTHE LIMITS is a project that investigates how art takes itself to the limit to move the horizon of thinking, perception and speech ever further in order to introduce new elements; to say yes or no when “normality” falters; to highlight what is proposed in the present and to prevent a situation of merely treading water. The artists we have invited and who have generously accompanied us even during the lockdown period take this opportunity to reaffirm the urgency of unleashing the infinity of possibles.

Vivian Suter: Bonzo's Dream
Vivian Suter Bonzo's Dream Brücke-Museum, Berlin 13 September 2020 - 14 February 2021 Mit der Einladung der argentinisch-schweizerischen Künstlerin Vivian Suter (geb. 1949 in Buenos Aires, lebt und arbeitet in Panajachel, Guatemala) tritt die Sammlung des Brücke-Museums zum ersten Mal in den direkten Dialog mit einer zeitgenössischen Position. In einem raumgreifenden Arrangement stellt Suter ihre freihängenden Leinwände den Gemälden, grafischen Werken und kunsthandwerklichen Arbeiten der Künstlergruppe Brücke gegenüber. Diese subjektive, intuitive und erzählerische Auswahl trifft die Künstlerin. Auch eine Reihe von kleinformatigen Collagen der Künstlerin Elisabeth Wild (geb. 1922 in Wien; gest. 2020 in Panajachel, Guatemala), Vivian Suters Mutter, werden zu sehen sein. In der Begegnung der historischen Position der Brücke mit der Ausstellungspräsentation Suters entfaltet sich die künstlerische Auseinandersetzung mit der Natur durch unterschiedliche Mittel und im Kontext eines erweiterten Malereibegriffs.

Sylvie Fleury: Evelyne Axell: Body Double
Sylvie Fleury Group show with Special Participation of Sylvie Fleury Muzeum Susch, Susch 01 August - May 2021 Curated by Anke Kempkes and Krzysztof Kościuczuk Muzeum Susch presents Body Double, a retrospective exhibition of the Belgian Pop-Surrealist Evelyne Axell (1935-1972). With her original feminist approach in the 1960s Axell became one of the pioneers of Pop Art in Europe. Her distinct body of work is populated by an all-female universe, transcending the established iconography of Pop Art at the time and reclaiming the discourse of women’s sexuality. As a special contribution, the exhibition features the prominent installation Marcel et Robert (2009) by Swiss artist Sylvie Fleury, entering into a cross-generational iconographic dialogue with Axell’s work. The rotating disk forming the base of Fleury’s work is designed as a giant Pop-coloured target mirroring the concentric composition in Axell’s painting The Wall of Sound (1966).

Meret Oppenheim, Carissa Rodriguez: The Flames. The Living Art of Ceramics"
Meret Oppenheim / Carissa Rodriguez Group show Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris, Paris Curated by Anne Dressen 26 March - 15 August 2021 This exhibition will explore ceramics within its intrinsic relations to art but also, more broadly, to humanity. Ceramics is one of the oldest form of human artistic expression. It has been utilized in the production and reproduction of idols, architecture, and food, employing minerals that precede mankind. Many religions and myths regarding the creation of man are believed to have originated from mud. Ceramics—halfway between handicraft, art, and design—is a universal form that forces us toreconsider the categories that usually hierarchize the arts. It is a medium that integrates sculptural, pictorial, utilitarian, craft,industrial, and amateur dimensions. It is also aprocess based practice that can be seen through the lens of relational aesthetics and performative arts Image: Carissa Rodriguez La Collectionneuse, 2015 16.5 x 12 cm
