Aglaé Bassens, Remote, 2021, oil paint on canvas, 32 x 48 in (81.3 x 121.9 cm)
On view from May 5 through November 26, 2023, the exhibition will take place in the museum's Ray Ellen and Allan Yarkin project space, dedicated to early museum exposures for artists. With a practice deeply rooted in observation and critical analysis, Bassens creates wistful, meditative glimpses into everyday life. Alluring and poignant, Bassens’s enigmatic works often explore issues of spatial tension, materiality, and intimacy. ICA Miami acquired one of the artist’s major works, Remote (2021), for its permanent collection in 2022.
Aglaé Bassens: Emptiful is organized by ICA Miami, and curated by Alex Gartenfeld, Irma and Norman Braman Artistic Director, and Amanda Morgan, Assistant Curator, Exhibitions and Publications.
