MOCA members at the Contributing level and above are invited to a walkthrough ofPipilotti Rist: Big Heartedness, Be My Neighborled by MOCA curator Anna Katz. A light breakfast of coffee and pastries will be provided outdoors prior to the tour.Pipilotti Rist: Big Heartedness, Be My Neighboris the first West Coast survey of the internationally renowned Swiss media artist. Rist’s installations explore relationships of video and the body; exterior environments and interior psychological landscapes; and reason and instinct. They exuberantly probe the video medium’s capaciousness—for vivid color; sweeping views and extreme close-ups; introspection and cultural critique; and, importantly, the creation of shared experiences within the public space of the museum. The exhibition surveys more than thirty years of the Zürich-based artist’s work, encompassing early single-channel videos; large-scale installations brimming with color and hypnotic musical scores; and sculptures that merge everyday objects, video, and decorative forms.Pipilotti Rist: Big Heartedness, Be My Neighboralso debuts a new audio-video installation made specifically for The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA.
