Artist Andrea Geyer joins Rail contributor Ksenia M. Soboleva for a conversation.
In this talk
Andrea Geyer
Andrea Geyer is a multi-disciplinary artist engaging queer methodologies in un-sensing the construction and politics of time. Her lens-based works activate the lingering potential of specific events, places, or biographies to materialize the entanglement of presence and absence due to ideologically motivated omissions in archives and memories. Exhibitions include: MoMA, the Whitney Museum of American Art; IMMA in Dublin; TATE Modern in London; Generali Foundation, Secession in Vienna; Witte De White in Rotterdam; Sao Paulo Biennal and documenta12/ Kassel. Forthcoming in 2024 Gropiusbau, Berlin and Leslie Lohman Museum, New York. She is a 2023 Guggenheim Fellow and the Associate Professor of New Genres at Parsons Fine Arts.
