FOMU presents Belgium’s first major solo of the American artist Cindy Sherman. Featuring more than 100 works from the 1970s to the present, the exhibition offers an exciting overview of this leading contemporary artist’s work.
Cindy Sherman – Anti-Fashion presents five decades of work divided over multiple floors. The exhibition Anti-Fashion dives deeper into Sherman’s fascination for fashion and the nexus between her independent work and commissions in the fashion industry. With no interest in glamorous fashion shoots, Sherman creates provocative photos featuring figures that could hardly be called beautiful, thus calling established ideals of beauty into question. Cindy Sherman - Anti-Fashion is realised by the Staatsgalerie Stuttgart in cooperation with Cindy Sherman’s studio in New York and her gallery Hauser & Wirth.
Cindy Sherman - Early Works 1975 – 1980 sheds light on some of Sherman’s main motivations and ideas. It includes experimental works from her student years and her iconic series Untitled Film Stills, which led to her international breakthrough in the late 1970s. Cindy Sherman – Early Works 1975-1980 is developed in collaboration with Gabriele Schor, Founding Director of the VERBUND COLLECTION, Vienna.
