Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This artwork features a striking black-and-white image depicting a woman lying down, accompanied by the text "SISTERS BE STRONG" in bold lettering. The composition has a collage-like quality, with the figure and text appearing to be cut out and layered on a rough, textured background resembling cardboard or recycled materials. The bold, graphic style and use of recycled materials suggest a strong social or political message, likely empowering women and promoting solidarity. While the identity of the individual is not specified, the piece conveys a powerful and inspiring sentiment through its visual elements and text. ...

Gallery
Kaufmann Repetto
Milan, New York City

francesca kaufmann gallery opened in January 2000. Since then, the gallery has aimed to explore a diverse range of media, with a focus on video, site specific installation, and a special attention towards the works of female artists. After ten years in its historical location, the gallery opened in a new space in October 2010, under the name kaufmann repetto, to mark the partnership between Francesca Kaufmann and Chiara Repetto. In its new location, the gallery has been able to further develop its exhibition programming through a project space dedicated predominantly to younger artists, as well as a courtyard for large scale outdoor installations, which run parallel to the gallery’s main exhibition schedule. In 2013, the gallery inaugurated a new location in Chelsea, New York, with a parallel program to the gallery’s main space in Milan. In 2019 the New York location moved to Tribeca, expanding to a 3,000 sq ft exhibition space. The inaugural exhibition at the gallery’s new space in Tribeca was a solo show by Lily van der Stokker. ...
