Keren Cytter - Mature Content
26-01-2019 - 28-04-2019
MUSEION, Bolzano, Italy
Mature Content is the first solo exhibition of Keren Cytter ((b. Tel Aviv, 1977, lives and works in New York) in an Italian museum. In her videos, films and installations, Cytter depicts how media, and especially social media clichés, permeate our daily lives. Using a cyclical, non-linear logic, her approach subverts linguistic conventions and traditional mechanisms of interpretation. With an explicit focus on amateur videos, her montages of impressions, memories and fantasies give rise to poetic and self-referential compositions with a penchant for intense and artificial scenes. At Museion, Keren Cytter presents an exhibition on the theme of time and the different stages in life. Previous works are displayed alongside new ones and there are a number of drawings - some exhibited on the museum’s glass facades - as well as a new animated film that highlights her work as an author of children’s books.
