Rosemarie Trockel: A Cosmos at Serpentine Gallery

Artist Rosemarie Trockel, long admired for her highly independent and influential practice, places her work in the company of others in A Cosmos. For more than thirty years Trockel has resisted an identifiable style, working in a variety of materials, including wool, bronze and found objects, as well as a range of mediums, including photography, collage, video and assemblage. Central to the exhibition are a number of core works by Trockel and works by several self-taught artists, such as Judith Scott and James Castle. Included in this dialogue are a constellation of artefacts from other fields of inquiry, such as the natural sciences and natural history. The objects that make up this cosmos offer a wealth of resonant relationships between different fields of knowledge and experience, proposing that we remain open to new discoveries. This exhibition was curated by Lynne Cooke and has been organised by the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in collaboration with the Serpentine Gallery.
