Independent New York

As part of the curated group exhibition 15x15: Independent 2010-2024 at Independent New York, Kasmin will present a single large-scale work by American citizen artist vanessa german (b. 1976). The presentation celebrates the fair's 15th anniversary by reimagining past booths that have made a significant impact on Independent’s history. 

Considered inextricable from her identity as an activist, german’s artistic practice includes sculpture, performance, communal rituals, and immersive installation. Working primarily with assemblage, german sculpts wood and plaster which she then adorns with a range of both found and sourced materials. As the inaugural Joyce Foundation Fellow at the University of Chicago’s Gray Center for Arts and Inquiry, german will stage a solo exhibition at the Logan Center for the Arts in July 2024.
