B. Ingrid Olson

August 18 - 24, 2024

B. Ingrid Olson implements elements of photography, sculpture, and performance in an ongoing exploration of the perceptual and conceptual relationships between bodies: her own, viewers’, architectural, and textual. Whether captured with a camera, machine carved or cast, her work tests the capacities of bodies and the space around them.

Solo exhibitions include two simultaneous exhibitions at the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts at Harvard University (2022); Secession, Vienna (2022), Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo (2018). Olson's work was featured in a two-person exhibition at The Renaissance Society at the University of Chicago (2017). Recent group exhibitions include Fata Morgana, Jeu de Paume, Paris (2022); The Inconstant World, Institute of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (2021); Dependent Objects, Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago (2021); New Visions, Henie-Onstad Kunstsenter, Høvikodden, Norway (2020); Being: New Photography, The Museum of Modern Art, New York (2018); Lost Without Your Rhythm, Aspen Art Museum (2018).
