Description
The life and work of the avant-garde artist and the perpetual theme of war and protest within her oeuvre.
This catalogue marks the first US survey exhibition dedicated to avant-garde Dutch artist Jacqueline de Jong, and the first institutional presentation since the artist's death on 29 June 2024. Until recent years, this underexamined artist has primarily been recognised for her role as founder and editor of the seminal artist's magazine, The Situationist Times.
However, this exhibition considers De Jong's dynamic and ever-contemporary practice in the decades that followed, touching on her interpretations of movements ranging from CoBrA, Surrealism, Fluxus, Pop, Neo-Expressionism, New Figuration, Land Art, and Globalism, and the ways she engaged art as a means of resistance.
Alongside documentation of paintings, sculptures, and drawings spanning 1962 to 2024, Vicious Circles includes reproductions of unpublished ephemera material held in De Jong's archive at Yale University's Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, along with newly commissioned texts written in memoriam, and De Jong's final interview, conducted by Dr. Margriet Schavemaker.
