Institute of Contemporary Art Miami ICA Miami

ICA Miami presents “\*sk\*/ey-,” a major solo exhibition for artist Marguerite Humeau (b. 1986, France; lives in London) comprising newly commissioned sculptures and video. The immersive installation marks Humeau’s first large-scale institutional presentation in the US, and sees the artist experiment with form through the abstract narratives of alternative worlds. Informed by the menace of climate change, these new presences pollinate, blossom and armor, proposing a potentially inevitable mode of aerial existence in perpetual movement.

Marguerite Humeau (b. 1986 in Cholet, France; lives in London) has had solo exhibitions at Lafayette Anticipations, Paris (2021); Kunstverein Hamburg, Germany (2019); Museion, Bolzano, Italy (2019); New Museum, New York (2018); and Tate Britain, London (2017), among others. The artist’s work has been featured in numerous group exhibitions, including ‘The Milk of Dreams’, 59th Venice Biennale (2022); Kunsthalle Basel, Switzerland (2021); the 16th Istanbul Biennial (2019); Centre Pompidou, Paris (2019); The High Line, New York (2017). In 2023 Humeau inaugurated a 160-acre earthwork, “Orisons,” in the San Luis Valley, Colorado, curated and produced by Black Cube Nomadic Art Museum.

“Marguerite Humeau” is organized by ICA Miami and curated by Alex Gartenfeld, Irma & Norman Braman Artistic Director, and Stephanie Seidel, Monica & Blake Grossman Curator.
