Suzanne McClelland

REMIX

February 2022

de boer is pleased to announce a temporary installation by Suzanne McClelland. For this project, New York-based McClelland reactivates existing images- remixing and responding to abstract reality. The works are diverse, contradictory, and engage with negation, hope and ideology suggesting a longing for the things we feel and then attempt to name. Mcclelland works in the active gap between inscription and comprehension; belief and doubt; recipe and operation, creating a space for the viewer to explore questions of legibility, understanding, facts and truth.

Suzanne McClelland has exhibited extensively in the United States and abroad. Museum solos include those at the Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art in Ridgefield, CT, the Weatherspoon Art Museum in North Carolina, the University At Albany SUNY and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York.

Recent Publications include “Just Left Feel Right” published by the Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art, organized and authored by Amy Smith-Stewart; the monograph “36-24-36” published by team gallery, inc with a text by Thierry de Duve, “Playlist”, “Networth”, and A DRESS/Address a collaboration with Alix Pearlstein all published by Space Sisters Press.
