Zusammenfassung:"The exhibitions feature site-specific installations informed by a feminist engagement with experiences of doubling and mirroring, gendered forms, reciprocity between photography and sculpture, and ways the artist's body and each viewer's body relate to the built environment....History Mother takes an unconventional approach to the "history" of Olson's practice. A selection of photographic works from the past decade joins new works, together articulating how Olson uses her own body as subject matter--bent knees, limbs, hands, and feet press up against mirrors and photographic surfaces, confusing points of contact between the figure and the picture plane--as well as the archival impulse that runs through her practice, with collections of objects, images, and gestures often gathered, repeated, and rhymed across the assembled works. Alongside this photographic "retrospective," Olson will show a new room-sized installation, Proto Coda, Index (2016-22), that choreographs the display of meticulously produced MDF reproductions of all of her sculptural reliefs made to date.... Meanwhile, Little Sister, presented in the Carpenter Center's Level 1 Gallery, debuts an ambitious suite of new sculptures scaled to the building's spaces, surfaces, and forms, and in critical conversation with its affects and ideological origins. In a variety of media, Olson distorts, inverts, repurposes, and frustrates the functions and metaphors of architectural elements, such as doors, windows, vestibules, light fixtures, and corridors. Sculptural details that suggest bodily anatomy and partially concealed photographs and ceramic sculptures join industrial materials and construction techniques in structures that populate Level 1's indoor and outdoor gallery and public spaces
