Fondazione Prada reopens in Milan with “Simon Fujiwara: Who the Bær,” on view from March 2 through September 27, 2021. The Berlin-based artist, known for exploring neo-capitalism, celebrity cultural, and historical icons has created a site-specific project for the show on the ground floor of the Podium. Fujiwara has imagined a fairytale featuring a cartoon bear named Who, seeking to define itself in an online world of images. Who can take on whatever image it encounters, going beyond time, place, and object. “Who the Bær” is a post-modern, coming-of-age fairytale presented in a bear-shaped labyrinth of cardboard and recyclable materials, with a story told through drawings, collages, sculptures and animations.
