Barbara Kasten: Scenarios, Aspen Art Museum

Scenarios celebrates Kasten’s expansive body of sculptural non-photographic work, through which the artist extends her exploration of spatial constructions into the viewers’ space and experience. 

Among the works in the Aspen Art Museum (AAM) exhibition will be examples from Kasten’s recent series Progressions (2017 onward), in which the artist affixes fluorescent acrylic shapes to the surfaces of her face-mounted photographs, creating a colorful and dynamic interplay between the sculptural relief elements and the acrylic forms depicted in her photographs. The site-specific work Elevation, installed outside of the galleries, interacts with AAM architect Shigeru Ban’s exterior grid of the woven slats that wrap around the museum.  Scenarios will also mark the first museum exhibition in the United States to include three of the artist’s ambitious video installations, making it the most comprehensive presentation of Kasten’s non-photographic work to date.

Exhibition dates: 16 October 2020 - 4 April 2021
