Anne Imhof has emerged over the past decade as one of the most acclaimed contemporary artists of her generation. While working prolifically across painting, drawing, video, music and sculpture, she is best known as a world builder and scene setter creating large-scale endurance performances or tableaux vivants that unite these various media in singular compositions. After galvanizing the German pavilion with her exhibition and performance Faust, for which she was awarded the prestigious Golden Lion award at the 2017 Venice Biennale, the visual and performance artist has gone on to create exhibitions at the Tate Modern in London and Palais de Tokyo in Paris that received acclaim from critics and viewers alike while landing her at the top of Art Review‘s “Power 100” list. The radical art world superstar takes hold of the entirety of the Armory for her largest performative work to date.
Utilizing the Wade Thompson Drill Hall, this all-encompassing work fuses space, performers, sound and scenography in response to our present in which anxiety and hope find a fragile balance between apathy, activism and resistance. This sequential durational performance takes audiences on a journey to ultimately find a sense of community through our own shared experiences. The culminating happening serves as a seismographic meter of our times, while projecting into our own possible futures to find a new form of hope.
