Sherrie Levine: 1977-1988
6 June 2025—29 September 2025
Aspen Art Museum, Aspen, CO, USA
Sherrie Levine: 1977-1988, is an exhibition devoted to the first eleven years of the American artist’s practice. This marks the artist’s first significant museum exhibition since Mayhem, her 2011 retrospective at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York.
Sherrie Levine enacts an ultra-thin mediation in her work, through which distinguishing factors between her art and the original source material often sit beyond comprehension, disrupting established notions of both artist and artwork. This interstitial space is both restorative and melancholic in Levine’s clear-eyed and delicate interventions. As she wrote in 1982, “I like to think of my paintings as membranes permeable from both sides so there is an easy flow between the past and future, between my history and yours.”
