Rosemarie Trockel: A Cosmos October 24, 2012

Co-curated by Rosemarie Trockel and Lynne Cooke for the Museo Centro de Arte Reina Sofia, 'A Cosmos'--encompassing all three main gallery floors of the New Museum building on the Bowery--will present a world shaped by Trockel's ideas, interests, and affinities. Instead of a traditional retrospective, this exhibition takes the form of an artistic self-portrait in which Trockel's work shares space with objects that have influenced her thinking and her practice. Spanning different eras and cultures, 'A Cosmos' brings together objects from disparate fields to compose a cartography of Trockel's influences.
