At last, another festive opening night at WIELS! Join us on Tuesday 26 April as of 19:00 for the opening of the new exhibition by Lucy Raven.
Artist and filmmaker Lucy Raven makes us look elsewhere. In order to understand our current landscape, she encourages us to look below, behind or beyond. Her solo exhibition Another Dull Day observes the properties of extreme pressure and material state changes in the context of the Western United States of America. In the vastness of the desert, Raven scrutinizes what is usually overlooked: gravel pits, nuclear testing sites, ballistics ranges—contemporary settler industries hidden in plain sight.
The exhibition at WIELS features two large film installations: the premiere of Demolition of a Wall (Album 2), and Ready Mix, recently commissioned by Dia Art Foundation in New York. These are shown alongside a new body of photographic work titled Socorro!.
