. Such a list might not seem entirely inclusive, since there are a few absences: there are no transgender artists, no self-identified trans women, no queer artists. But there is a voice. And the voice is not silenced. In fact, its strength is our understanding of the voices of others, of the people who are most often not heard.Translated from Italian by Marguerite Shore.

The painting is a representation of the body, a representation of a body with the potential to be a painting. The body is a visible, tangible, tangible, tangible thing. As in other works, there is a question of the fact of the body as a thing, and of what constitutes the fact of the body. In fact, the question is not whether or not the body exists, but what the body means. The body is a part of the world.It is very difficult to talk about the work of Helen Frankenthaler, who has been criticized for having a male chauvinism. I would like to ask whether there is a difference between a man who looks like a woman, and a woman who looks like a man. Or between a man who thinks like a woman, and a woman who thinks like a man. Or between a man who thinks about the world from a male perspective, and a woman who thinks about the world from a female perspective. Helen Frankenthaler has made a very conscious decision to work with a certain amount of ambiguity and contradiction in order to give the viewer a certain amount of freedom. The ambiguity and contradiction that she confronts is one of her strengths. But I wonder if it is not her male chauvinism that is the problem. It seems that the problem is that she has chosen a male chauvinism that is the dominant esthetic of the art world. Helen Frankenthaler has chosen to work with that esthetic which is, in a certain sense, a masculine esthetic, a male chauvinism. She has chosen to work with that esthetic that is defined by a masculine esthetic. Helen Frankenthaler has chosen to work with that esthetic that is defined by a masculine esthetic that is always limited by a masculine esthetic. She has chosen to work with that esthetic that is always limited by a masculine esthetic that is always limited by a masculine esthetic.
. The same categories and forms that have come to be seen as the core of identity politics—those that make up the different parts of the body and the individual—are now seen as the fundamental organizing principles of the nation-state. The result is an awareness that the body is also a site of political and social change, and that it is in constant transition, as we are constantly in the midst of new identities, or new identities that are constantly being formed.Süfjord has made a remarkable effort to present these new identities in a way that is as accessible as possible. In this way, she has created a perfect, in-between space that is both open and private, a space that allows for a new dialogue with our own identities. In this exhibition, we found a playful, lighthearted reflection on the concept of identity and the ways in which it is constructed.

For example, a poster showing a young boy wearing a pair of plaid pants and a white button-down shirt with a pink pin (Tattoos, 2005) reads simply, I LOVE YOU. The word is printed in red lettering and in bold lettering, and the phrase I LOVE YOU, in black letters, is printed on a piece of paper. A woman stands in a wheelchair, with her legs raised and her arms crossed, like a dog whose leash has been torn off. Her head is covered in a bright pink dress with a red heart on it, and her hands are tied behind her back. She is wearing a white button-down shirt with a pink collar. The image is repeated ad nauseam. It is a clichéd image, and the same clichéd image is repeated. The same cliché is repeated by a man in a wheelchair, his head turned toward the viewer, and his hands tied behind his back. The image, which is repeated as an object, is repeated as a figure, and the objects are reproduced as objects. The individual who appears in the photograph has lost his or her identity, and the image is a reflection of the loss of identity that is experienced when a person loses his or her identity. The photographs are often taken at the same location as the scenes in the video.In a work from the series Women at Home, 2005, a woman sits with her back to the camera and is photographed from behind, with a small camera in her hand. The image is of a womans back, showing the large red heart on her hand, which is also a red heart. The heart appears in a different color from the red heart, as if it were a part of the heart of the womans back. The red heart, which is embedded in the womans back, is an object that appears in the same position as the womans back. The red heart is a sign of loss and a symbol of transience.
. The exhibition can be considered a sign of the contemporary artists shift away from the ironical, ironic, or self-reflexive stance that characterized the past decade. Instead, it is a kind of representation that works as a metaphor for the potential of art in the age of globalization. Although some works, such as the photographic series Untitled (Fountain), 2015, are marked by a certain loose brushwork, they nonetheless reveal a great deal about the artists sensibility, as well as the fact that he is a master of the image, and the sensitivity to the visual and physical nuances of the medium. In this sense, the exhibition becomes an example of the new artistic practice in which the sensibility, the subjectivity, and the metaphysical and symbolic aspects are transformed into a material and material fact, a fact that is capable of evoking a universal human condition.
