Annette Messager:
The Messengers
4 March - 25 May 2009
(closes eve of the 25th)
Annette Messager (born in 1943, lives and works in Paris) is widely regarded as one of Europe's most important contemporary artists. The retrospective presents an overview of the artist's career and reveals her use of an astonishing and affecting repertoire of forms and materials, among them soft toys, stuffed animals, fabrics, wool, photographs and drawings.
This exhibition presents a panoramic survey from the intimate and conceptually driven pieces Messager made in the early 1970s to the very large sculptural installations of the past 15 years, in which movement plays an increasingly important role.
