Jessica Stockholder, The Squared Circle: Ringing

We are thrilled to present a major new commission by the groundbreaking American-Canadian artist Jessica Stockholder, “The Squared Circle: Ringing.” This spring, visitors on Floor 1 are invited to experience a new large-scale, site-specific artwork by Stockholder, alongside a series of text-based gestures. Revisiting elements from her 2021 installation “Cut a rug a round square,” Stockholder will further explore the interplay between material, colour, and perspective to transform the space into an immersive experience. Incorporating poetic writing into her practice, she will engage with the museum’s various messages, altering and interrupting them to shift viewers’ attention toward the formal beauty and complexity of language.
