Sarah Sze Night into Day

For her solo show at the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain, the internationally acclaimed artist Sarah Sze will create an immersive installation that transforms the visitor’s perception and experience of Jean Nouvel’s iconic building.

Sarah Sze is best known for her intricate assemblages of everyday objects that blur the boundaries between painting, sculpture and architecture. For her upcoming exhibition, the artist will explore the way in which the proliferation of images— printed in magazines, gleaned from the Web, intercepted from outer space—fundamentally changes our relationship to objects, time and memory. Confusing the boundaries between inside and outside, mirage and reality, past and present, her new installation will bring together for the first time in her work the architectural, the sculptural and the filmic, altering the visitor’s perception of space and time.
