This is Banks Violette’s first major US exhibition since 2008, featuring three large-scale works at MoCA CT. Each piece is displayed in its own room, highlighting recurring themes of American culture. Violette’s work examines cultural symbols and notions of impermanence. His drawings depict landscapes and scenes of isolation, while his sculptural works juxtapose industrial materials with intricate detail.

Organised by Pamela Hovland, Robin Jaffee Frank, Lisa Kereszi, Richard Klein, and Kathryn Turley-Sonne.

Banks Violette: American Standard is made possible through the generosity of William and Jodi Felton and Thomas Hoffstetter / The Hofstetter Baron Group of Wells Fargo Advisors.

Weltraum marks Wolfgang Tillmans’ first major museum show in Germany in over half a decade. Following extensive retrospectives in the USA and Canada, the exhibition focuses on new works created since 2022.

The starting point for Tillmans’ latest photographic series is, in part, a journey that began in San Francisco, the hub of digital technologies on the US West Coast, and continued through Guam to Southeast Asia. In regions such as Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Mongolia, he continued his investigation into the material traces of internet corporations and AI companies, observing how these industries intertwine disparate locales into a dense global network.

Weltraum prominently features large-scale images that engage in a dialogue with historical artworks from the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden (SKD) collections, creating a dynamic exchange between present and historical contexts.

This conversation between Tom Burr and art historian David J. Getsy explores the intersections and contrasts in queer interpretations of Scott Burton’s (1939–1989) multifaceted contributions to writing, performance, and sculpture from the late 1960s to the 1980s.

Burr has engaged with Burton's work for over a decade, often in dialogue with key figures like Jean Genet and Chick Austin. Since the late 1980s, Burr’s art has played a pivotal role in reshaping the way sculpture is understood, particularly how it can evoke transient sensations, eroticism, and the tensions inherent in queer thought. His practice often challenges the present moment through evocative objects, ambiguously personal remnants, and images from the past. In addition, Burr's work frequently engages with sites of queer public life, employing both overt demonstrations and subtle reimaginings of nature and the built environment. Burr’s solo exhibition Addict-Love at SculptureCenter in 2008 further exemplifies these themes.

Reflecting on three key projects from the past 30 years, Liam Gillick will talk about his work related to subjects as varied as the secret life of Robert McNamara, car production in Sweden in the 1970s, and the impossibility of tragedy as genre on streaming platforms. All his work has in one way or another drawn inspiration from post World War II attempts to create new forms of administration in regard to human relationships.
