Marianna Simnett

Through performance, video, watercolour, and installation, Marianna Simnett challenges how bodies are perceived and imagined. Uncanny narratives display the body as a site of dispute, performing surgical interventions and gestures of collapse and ecstasy. Solo exhibitions include the forthcoming Frans Hals Museum, Amsterdam (2019), Kunsthalle Zürich, Zurich (2019), as well as Copenhagen contemporary (2019); the new Museum, New York (2018); Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt (2018); Zabludowicz collection, London (2018); Matt’s gallery, London (2017); Seventeen gallery, New York and London (2016). Her work will also be included in forthcoming group exhibitions at tai Kwun contemporary, Hong Kong (2019); the Walker Art center, Minneapolis (2019); Sadie Coles, London (2019).
