I Don´t Like You Very Much”-Monica Bonvicini

Monica Bonvicini's exhibition for Kunsthaus Graz is centered on themes at the core of the artist’s research: an examination of architecture, literature, and the construction of sexual and gender identity. Following the show at OGR in Turin, the large-scale architectural sculpture "As Walls Keep Shifting" is presented in Graz in a state of complete but calculated disaster. Further works on view are the new neon work "Love Never Win" (2022), the video work "I See a White and Blue Building" (2020), the carpet installation "Breach of Décor" (2020), and the photo series "Italian Homes" (2019). The question of home, commodity, desire, and sex is continued in the new work "You to Me", treating elements of fetish as sculptural and performative objects that invite the public – within the institutional context of the museum – to live out the voyeurism that is intrinsic to all museum visits.
