SUMMARY:New York\, NY | Guided Tour of “Wangechi Mutu: Intertwined” at the New Museum
DESCRIPTION:Join ArtTable at The New Museum for a tour of a major solo exhibition of the work of Wangechi Mutu (b. 1972\, Nairobi)\, bringing together over one-hundred works from across her twenty-five-year career. The tour will be led by New Museum teaching artist\, Yasmeen Abdalla.ArtTable had the chance to interview Mutu in 2014 in partnership with artnet. This tour brings us full circle to see the significant development and accomplishment in her career since that time.Representing the full breadth of Mutu’s practice\, the presentation will encompass painting\, collage\, drawing\, sculpture\, film\, and performance. Mutu first gained acclaim for her collage-based practice exploring camouflage\, transformation\, and mutation. She extends these strategies to her work across various media\, developing hybrid\, fantastical forms that fuse mythical and folkloric narratives with layered sociohistorical references. “Wangechi Mutu: Intertwined” will trace connections between recent developments in the artist’s sculptural practice and her decades-long exploration of the legacies of colonialism\, globalization\, and African and diasporic cultural traditions. At once culturally specific and transnational in scope\, Mutu’s work grapples with contemporary realities\, while proffering new models for a radically changed future informed by feminism\, Afrofuturism\, and interspecies symbiosis.This exhibition is curated by Margot Norton\, Allen and Lola Goldring Senior Curator\, and Vivian Crockett\, Curator\, with Ian Wallace\, Curatorial Assistant. \n\n\n\nSee the New Museum website for full funding acknowledgements for the exhibition. \n\n\n\nAdmission: \n\n\n\n\nArtTable Members – $20\n\n\n\nMember Guests – $30\n\n\n\n\nNot a member?
