Amalia Pica

Hi everyone

So far I’ve managed to tracked the only other exhibition that Amalia Pica and her work Moon Golem 2009 has been in apart for Every Myth...
This work was commissioned for the group exhibition Deceitful Moon at the Hayward Gallery Project Space (20 July – 31 August 2009). It opened 40 years after the Apollo 11 moon landing and the show celebrates this anniversary. This group exhibition and “explores the Moon as a site for misrepresentation and mistrust, touching on a tradition of hoaxes and conspiracy theories that reaches back to the 18th century”. I think this idea relates quite well to the exhibition in Dublin as well as in NZ, especially the idea of misrepresentation.

There is an artist biography and group exhibitions list on this website but none of her other group or solo shows have included this particular work.
