Rachel Harrison’s (b. 1966) first full-scale survey will track the development of her 25-year career, incorporating room-size installations, autonomous sculpture, photography, and drawing. Her works are known to bring together the breadth of art history, the impurities of politics, and the artifacts of pop and celebrity culture. The exhibition will include approximately 100 works spanning the early 1990s to the present, drawn from private and public collections throughout the world.
This exhibition is organized by Elisabeth Sussman, Curator and Sondra Gilman Curator of Photography, and David Joselit, Distinguished Professor, Graduate Center, City University of New York, with Kelly Long, curatorial assistant.
