About the book >.>.> Myths of the Marble is an exhibition that pushes against idealizations of digital tools and virtual space. In an exhibition that brings together projects by eleven international artists we reencounter our bodies as lived felt racialized and gendered realities that are touched and touching alongside our constant companions-the internet and the screen. Co-curated by Milena Hoegsberg Senior Curator at Henie Onstad Kunstsenter (HOK) and Alex Klein Dorothy and Stephen R. Weber (CHE ’60) Curator at the Institute of Contemporary Art University of Pennsylvania (ICA) this timely group show also marks the first- time collaboration between our two institutions which share a commitment to continuously exploring how artists negotiate critical issues of our time. In 2012 Alex Klein was invited by the Office of Contemporary Art Norway to conduct research in Oslo where she met Milena Hoegsberg who as the result of an inspired dialogue extended the invitation to co-conceive this exhibi- tion. The resulting curatorial and insti- tutional collaboration produced seven new ambitious commissions by interna- tional artists Cayetano Ferrer Ane Graff Rachel de Joode Ignas Krunglevicius Florian Meisenberg Sondra Perry.
