Performing the Grid is an exhibition that brings together an intergenerational group of artists and cultural producers that utilize the grid as a performative strategy to examine, challenge and position philosophical, political, social, domestic, corporeal, and mythical perspectives.

at The Art Institute of Chicago
Loop - Chicago, IL, USA
Jan 23, 2016 - May 01, 2016

at Zabludowicz Collection, London
London, UK

Marina Pinsky: Dyed Channel
at Kunsthalle Basel
Basel, Switzerland
Jan 22, 2016 - Apr 10, 2016

Taking Basel—its Rhine, architecture, and pharmaceutical history—as her central subject, Marina Pinsky (b. 1986) creates an oneiric landscape of new works for her first institutional exhibition in Switzerland and her largest solo show to date. The Russian-born, Brussels-based artist uses historical examples of product branding to explore the politics behind objects and images of them.
