The first major institutional solo exhibition in Asia by French artist Isabelle Cornaro recently kicked off at the Today Art Museum in Beijing. The Isabelle Cornaro Solo Exhibition features 27 works, including a brand-new large-scale local instal-lation work, which was unveiled for the first time.
As a contemporary artist, curator and educator, Cornaro is known for exploring systems of representation and sym-bols in art history through her work. Her oeuvre encompasses paintings, sculptures, installations and films, blending traditional and modern concepts. She often pays homage to traditional modes of representation through meticulously arranged juxtapositions and rebuilds them. Her cross-cultural background and the speculative power of her work have garnered significant attention in the contemporary art world.
Zhang Ran, director of the Today Art Museum, noted that Cornaro reshapes the structure of objects in her works, ex-ploring the relationships between media.
The exhibition coincides with the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and France as well as the China-France Year of Culture and Tourism, promoting international artistic exchange. As a signifi-cant project of the 18th Croisements Festival, this exhibition injects new vitality into Sino-French cultural dialogue.
The exhibition is set to run until July 14.
