SUMMARY:Beatriz González Astrup-Fearnley Museum
DESCRIPTION:Astrup Fearnley Museet presents a retrospective of Beatriz González (1932–2026). Bringing together over 150 artworks\, this major exhibition explores the artist’s influential practice from the 1960s to the present. \nKnown for her distinctive graphic style and bold palette\, González’s work explores the power and impact of the images we encounter every day\, probing their potential to communicate and determine how we perceive the world. Drawing from found images that she has amassed throughout her life in Colombia – ranging from tattered reproductions of revered paintings from Western art history to newspaper clippings reporting on violent murder\, conflict and loss – González transforms her sources through her work. Playfully addressing the dominating influence of Western iconography\, questioning socially constructed ideas of taste\, confronting complex histories of violence\, and paying homage to displaced communities\, she reveals how images reflect power dynamics on a personal and political scale. \nChallenging conventional hierarchies of value imposed on specific mediums or cultures\, González experiments with myriad media\, including painting\, prints\, furniture-objects (beds\, tables and TVs)\, monumental painted backdrops\, and large-scale installations occupying public spaces. Rooted in and responding to a specific Colombian context\, her work addresses pressing concerns ranging from political violence to the climate crisis and the lives of indigenous communities while remaining deeply resonant to contemporary global politics and speaking to universal human concerns. \nDATE/TIME:       Thursday\, September 17 at 11:45 (for 12:00)
