The Serious Moonlight exhibition brings together a selection of immersive installations by American artist Betye Saar (born in 1926 in Los Angeles). Rarely exhibited until now, they reveal how the artist harnesses the evocative power of found objects.
Invoking Black identity and intersectional feminism in the context of the American West Coast, her installations reveal to visitors singular universes, inspired by rituals and spiritual practices.
Rich in stories, Betye Saar's installations are inspired by her travels (Haiti, Mexico, Nigeria) during the 1970s.
