The Incongruous Image proposes an improbable dialogue. This unusual exhibition features the work of Liliana Porter (B.1941, Buenos Aries, lives and works in New York) in relation to Marcel Broodthaers’s (1924, Brussels - 1976, Cologne). The show revisits the work produced by Liliana Porter from 1970 to the present and a selection of works by Marcel Broodthaers from the 1970s, exploring how the artists each combine visual elements which are apparently incompatible.
