Generalization is the first survey of artist Tania Pérez Córdova (b. 1979, Mexico City) in a United States institution, featuring a selection of twenty-four works made over the past ten years, as well as objects specially commissioned for this occasion.
The exhibition presents a reading of Pérez Córdova’s work through issues that her artistic endeavors have sought to address: the passage of time, the nature of materials, the gaze of the other, the imminence or possibility of an action, the way in which we assign value to objects, negative space, and more recently, the insufficiency of discourse.

With the aim of “creating and organizing a contemporary art event of international stature, in which sound – in all its forms – constitutes the heart of the event”, this biennial brings together sound installations and silent works in which sound is induced, as well as a series of events (sound performances, concerts, public discussions, etc.) across different venues, towns and villages (Sion, Martigny, Loèche, Sierre…).
As part of the exhibition Echoes of a Collection. Œuvres du Frac Franche-Comté (curated by Sylvie Zavatta, director of the Frac, in collaboration with Christophe Fellay, artist and teacher at EDHEA, Jean-Paul Felley, director of EDHEA) from September 16 to October 29, 2023 in Martigny (Switzerland) will include the following works by Ulla von Brandenburg : The Record (2005-2014) and Le milieu est bleu (2020), which are part of the Collection of Frac Franche-Comté.
Le titre de l’exposition “It Has a Golden Sun and an Elderly Grey Moon” fait référence à une œuvre de 2016 d’Ulla von Brandenburg (1974, vit et travaille à Paris et à Karlsruhe), qui est au centre de l’exposition. Dans la présentation expansive, dans laquelle le film, la performance, l’architecture et l’installation sont combinés, le spectateur pénètre dans un monde entre réalité et illusion, passé et présent.
Threads exhibition at Arnolfini. Image by Lisa Whiting Photography for Arnolfini. All rights reserved.
Arnolfini welcomes you to discover Threads, a major exhibition featuring 21 contemporary international artists and makers, who use textiles as their chosen medium. Celebrating material and making, these artists use the storytelling power of textiles to connect with past traditions, find commonalities between cultures, time and place, and to ‘breathe stories into materials’. Co-curated by leading textile artist Alice Kettle, Threads weaves throughout Arnolfini’s three floors, to reveal how textiles ‘remember’, how memory is ‘embedded within the process of making’ and how new narratives are created.
It was through an exchange of artworks that Denis Savary and Pierre-Olivier Arnaud first got in touch and started a discussion. These exchanges continued during the Ballard in Albisola exhibition held in late 2021, organised by the MAMCO at the home of the artist Asger Jorn in Italy.[1] There, the artists created a collaborative artwork, a kind of collage that almost assumed the form of a garden sculpture, by bringing together objects found on the exhibition site. In other words, the encounter of a viscous vase the colour of “Heineken” glass; bunting in shades of grey; black and brown earthenware tiles; the base of an armchair; and a limestone concretion, as the origin of an entire exhibition project, held sometime later. […]
At the Synagogue de Delme, Denis Savary and Pierre-Olivier Arnaud invite the visitor to Josy’s Club, a space plunged into a half-light, becoming the receptacle of these finds taken from various wanderings and constituting a true reappropriation of urban space by the imagination. Inspired by the works of J.G. Ballard such as the Concrete Trilogy or The Burning World,[3] the exhibition reveals itself like a dry garden, in which each sculpture or pictorial element is symptomatic of grey areas. This arid, drab landscape reflects the peripheral variants of a modern, mapped-out thought, but in a spirit that is truly alive, because it is not ghosts or ruins that are up for discussion here. The artists highlight a very lively and proliferating tendency of this early twenty-first century. Without falling into nostalgia or a certain fetishism for modernism, this project focuses on its deformation and traces within the present age; on its state of advanced decay, from which no alternative exists capable of resituating it within this world that, while living in an eternal present also cultivates a certain appetite for retro-futurism. The artists are interested in modernism’s aesthetic deployment in urban space, based on what people do and create with it, from indistinct foundations, using apparently non-artistic gestures, more akin to DIY, but contributing to modifying and evolving the forms and aesthetic of the city.
