LIZZIE FITCH | RYAN TRECARTIN: IT WAIVES BACK
Prada presents the exhibition “Lizzie Fitch | Ryan Trecartin: It Waives Back”, organized with the support of Fondazione Prada, at Prada Aoyama Tokyo. The sixth floor of the building, designed by Herzog & de Meuron, will host the first presentation of this work by American collaborative artists Fitch | Trecartin in Asia, and their first solo show in Japan.
The exhibition presents new movies and sculptures conceived by Lizzie Fitch and Ryan Trecartin as part of a broader body of work that began in 2016, when the artists moved their home and studio to rural Ohio. The foundational body of work, titled “Whether Line”, was commissioned by Fondazione Prada and debuted in 2019 as a large-scale multimedia installation in Milan. As explained by the artists, “Our project in Ohio is intended to be a ‘life project,’ providing space for experimentation and collaboration. Our goal is to allow the purpose of the space to evolve and grow.”
For “It Waives Back”, Lizzie Fitch and Ryan Trecartin present a large-scale installation, two movies, and a series of freestanding sculptures. The sculptural theatre, a signature installation motif of the artists, takes the form of a hybrid environment consisting of a wooden structure and a darkened greenhouse.
