Summary
"Center for Curatorial Studies at Bard College inaugurates the new 17,000 square-foot Hessel Museum of Art with Wrestle, an exhibition of over 150 representative works from the Marieluise Hessel Collection... This compelling overview of the Hessel Collection focuses on works that challenge notions of self and others, offering connections in form and content among works from diverse artistic and social positions. We have tried to be sensitive to the context and intentions of the artists, Tom Eccles states, but we have also tried to craft an exhibition that is contentious, provocative, and faithful to the character of the collection as a whole and the collectors bold and passionate choices over the past 40 years. An innovative two-volume catalogue, also titled Wrestle, continues the curatorial play of suggestive juxtapositions. All works in the exhibition are illustrated along with three specially commissioned artist projects."--Gallery website.
