In this exhibition, Leonor Antunes continues her exploration into the legacy of different female creators of the 20th Century that are often a source of inspiration for the artist. The life and work of complex figures such as Anni Albers (1899–1994), Clara Porset (1895–1991), Eileen Gray (1878–1976), Léna Meyer-Bergner (1906–1981) and Lina Bo Bardi (1914–1992) are the subject matter of Antunes’ study, recreation and subsequent representation in sculptural objects that echo this generation of artists and designers from years back. For the exhibition at kurimanzutto, Antunes surveys the life and work of Léna Meyer-Bergner during her residency in Mexico from 1939 to 1947.
