SUMMARY:Insomnia: Artist Talk with Nelly Agassi
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a presentation by Nelly Agassi!\n\n\nInsomnia: Artist Talk\nwith Nelly Agassi \nNovember 20\, 2024\n6:00pm – 8:00pm\n \nFree\, RSVP Required  \n \n\n\nJoin us as we speak with Nelly Agassi about her installation at IMSS\, Insomnia. \n \n\n\n\nPhoto credit: Itai Neeman \n\n\nAbout the Artist:  \nNelly Agassi born 1973\, Tel Aviv. Lives and works in Chicago. \nAgassi’s work process is full of obsessive\, repetitive\, sisyphean actions\, which function as a gripping point\, as a sole possibility\, as a connection to reality\, to safe ground. Her work represents an important and fascinating transition in the feminist thinking and practice of the nineties\, a transition from a declared engagement with feminism to an existent engagement with femininity. This is\, to a large extent\, a post-feminist stage\, which entails an engagement with the private and the intimate\, not from the starting-point of social immobility or of weakness\, but from a starting-point of privilege and of choice. Agassi’s works do echo the traditional\, domestic\, women’s crafts – embroidery\, sewing\, knitting – but her use of these materials is not conventional\, certainly not functional\, and accumulates a different resonance that stems from the sober awareness of the moment of choice. \nAgassi had numerous solo exhibitions. Among others\, she exhibited in the Nahum Gutman Museum (Tel Aviv)\, Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts (Chicago)\, Tel Aviv Museum of Art (Tel Aviv)\, Herzliya Museum of Contemporary Art (Herzliya). She was part of various group exhibitions\, including in the Tate Modern (London)\, Israel Museum (Jerusalem)\, Hyde Park Art Center (Chicago)\, Zacheta National Gallery of Art (Warsaw)\, Design Museum (Milano)\, and the Chicago Cultural Center (Chicago). During her career\, Agassi won numerous awards and prizes\, e.g. she was awarded the Nathan Gottesdiener Foundation for Israeli Art Prize of the Tel Aviv Museum of Art in 2003. Her works are featured in the collections of the Tel Aviv Museum of Art and the Israel Museum (Jerusalem). Her works are featured in the collections of the Tel Aviv Museum of Art and the Israel Museum (Jerusalem). \n\n\n\nThis project is partially supported by a CityArts Grant from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs & Special Events. \nThis project is supported\, in whole or in part\, by federal assistance listing number\, 21.027 awarded to the International Museum of Surgical Science by the US Treasury through the American Rescue Plan Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds in the amount of $125\,000.00\, representing 83% of total project funding. \nThis project is partially supported by a Chicago Arts Recovery Program grant from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs & Special Events. \n\n\n\nThe International Museum of SurgicalScience acknowledges support from the Illinois Arts Council.
