Breasts
18 April - 24 November, 2024
The major group exhibition Breasts exhibited during the Venice Biennale at ACP Palazzo Franchetti. Curated by Carolina Pasti, the landmark exhibition spanned painting, sculpture, photography, and film from 1500 to the present day. The showcase explored how breasts have been represented in art across cultures and traditions, positioning the breast as a cultural signifier of profound personal, human and political significance.
Featured in the exhibition is Teniqua Crawford’s painting Fragment Horizon which presents the human figure as landscape, connecting the human condition to the natural world. The fragment explores themes of embodiment, the subtle erotic, and life emerging from stillness. Crawford's work was exhibited alongside historical and contemporary artists including Louise Bourgeois, Salvador Dali, Marcel Duchamp, Robert Mapplethorpe, Cindy Sherman and Anna Weyant.
