Kim Gordon is a major figure on the contemporary artistic and cultural scene. Her experimental artistic practice is fueled by radical, subversive thinking and an unconventional punk energy.
Recognized for her major role in the history of alternative music, as a founding member of the bands Sonic Youth, Free Kitten and Body/Head, her work also extends to the visual arts and writing. She also works as an art critic, is involved in the field of fashion, and is developing an acting and directing practice in film and video.
At the Collection Lambert, she displays a wide selection of works from the last ten years, many of them previously unseen. Arranged in the form of a total installation, the ensemble of paintings, watercolors, sculptures and videos recounts the place of beings in a world governed by technological fetishism and the glorification of the commodity-object, where the political and the intimate become irremediably intertwined, where the performative body invites itself as the powerful form of a possible surge forward.
