Her unmasking images of objects and situation penetrate the protective veils of taboos. Frey’s images offer us new points of view as they convey vulnerability and at the same time confront us with a new type of esthetics.
Out of her complete works, Frey has chosen a selection of images that represent key notes of her full repertoire.
We get the opportunity of enjoying images of the fem series dating back to the 80ies, the vast panel Erstkommunion (First Communion) from 1999 and images of the series Maria M (2006), as well as old and recent films that were crated during the past 5 years.
Frey visited Juchitan, Mexico, last year and there managed to collect images and footage documenting a city still dominated by matriarchy. Her film Juchitan – female networks, based on this research, forms part of the exhibition. Furthermore the artist has used the images to create a number of entirely new digital collages, also to shown in this exhibition.
