"The Autonomy Illusion"
You are invited to join us for an OPC talk with artist Gedi Sibony titled "The Autonomy Illusion". For over two decades, Sibony has transformed cast-offs and other found materials into spare, elusive works of art, forging an evocative new strain of Minimalism from the salvage of contemporary life.
Gedi Sibony lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. Recent solo exhibitions include Greene Naftali, New York (2023, 2020, 2018) and Mister Fahrenheit, New York (2022). Solo institutional presentations include The Douglas Hyde Gallery, Trinity College, Dublin (2014); Culturgest, Lisbon (2011); Contemporary Art Museum, St. Louis (2009); and In the Still Epiphany, a curatorial project at The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, St. Louis (2012).
Sibony’s work is in the collections of the Astrup Fearnley Museet, Oslo; Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh; Dallas Museum of Art; Hessel Museum of Art, Annandale-on-Hudson, New York; Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, St. Louis; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York; Saint Louis Art Museum; Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, among others.
