Josephine Meckseper, Belknap Visiting Fellow in the Humanities Council and Department of Art and Archaeology, gives a lecture entitled “Ten Minutes Later.” Details here.
Josephine Meckseper is known for large-scale vitrine installations and films that meld the aesthetic language of twentieth-century modernism with her own imagery of historical undercurrents. Her works, encompassing sculpture, painting, photography and film, simultaneously expose and encase cultural signifiers and everyday objects to form an investigation into the collective unconscious of our time. Meckseper’s works have been published extensively in monographs and shown in numerous museum solo exhibitions worldwide, including the Frac des Pays de la Loire, Nantes (2019); the Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst, Zurich (2009); the Indianapolis Museum of Art, Indianapolis, (2009); the Museum of Modern Art, New York (2008); and the Kunstmuseum, Stuttgart (2007). She was included in international biennials such as the NGV Triennial, Melbourne, Australia (2017); the Taipei Biennial, Taiwan (2014); and the Whitney Biennial, New York (2006 and 2010).
