Alex Müller’s first solo show in Asia will open on Nov 10 in Shanghai
“Alex Müller’s solo exhibition I Was at Home marks the artist’s first individual project in Asia. The exhibition features some of her most representative works in recent years, spanning painting, installation, and soft sculpture. The exhibition takes three letterboxes as its conceptual axis, each reflecting a “stop” in the artist’s life: “Huchem-Stammeln” as her first station – the place where she grew up, and “Neukölln” and “Mellenau” as the two places where she currently resides (Neukölln being a district of Berlin, and Mellenau located about an hour and a half to the north). These sites serve as metaphors for “home,” and were also included in Müller’s 2023 exhibition at Kunsthalle Nürnberg, where each marked a significant stage in her life. Müller’s practice emphasizes the material and poetic potential of the everyday – coffee, soap, stamps – familiar substances that, through the artist’s hand, are transformed and imbued with imagination, unfolding toward the unexpected.”
The exhibition will be presented with the presentation “Ma Lingli: Lane 1273“ which is taking place at the same time.
