Analia Saban, born in Buenos Aires and based in Los Angeles, is the Modern’s third FOCUS artist for the 2018–2019 season. With her work represented in such significant collections as UCLA’s Hammer Museum, Museum of Contemporary Art, and Los Angeles County Museum of Art in Los Angeles; Centre Pompidou in Paris; and Fundación Proa in Buenos Aires, Saban is recognized for her attention to issues of fragility, balance, technique, and experimentation. Her connection with mundane objects is at the forefront of her investigation of tangible materials and the metaphysical properties of artworks. Throughout the past decade, Saban has developed a dynamic practice that at once explores and subverts the fundamental elements of artmaking, blurring the lines between what constitutes painting, sculpture, and everyday object.
For this Tuesday Evenings presentation, Saban shares the development of her practice with particular consideration of her most recent work, shown last fall in the solo exhibition Punched Card at Tanya Bonakdar Gallery in New York, which sets up the works featured in FOCUS: Analia Saban, open to the public beginning March 30.
Tuesdays Evenings at The Modern is a popular series of lectures and presentations by artists, architects, historians, and critics. Café Modern serves cocktails, salads, and appetizers on Tuesday nights during the lecture series.
