The multi-artist exhibition, “Role Play,” integrating performing arts, video, and photography, is on view at Fondazione Prada.
February 19, 2022 - June 27, 2022
“Role Play,” curated by Melissa Harris, is currently on view at Fondazione Prada’s Osservatorio in Milan through June 27. Integrating performing arts, video, and photography, 11 key international artists examine the quest, creation, and fantasy of surrogate identities, approached as multifaceted versions of the self. Said Harris, “Since the early twentieth century, projects engaging role-play have further contemplated identity, liberating artists to gender-bend and time-travel and envision their selves in myriad ways, in turn reflecting on their very is-ness—even when that is in flux.” The exhibition features works by artists Meriem Bennani, Juno Calypso, Cao Fei, Mary Reid Kelley and Patrick Kelley, Beatrice Marchi, Darius Mikšys, Narcissister, Haruka Sakaguchi & Griselda San Martin, Tomoko Sawada, Bogosi Sekhukhuni, and Amalia Ulman.
