Press Release

White Cube New York presents a major new installation by Doris Salcedo, marking over 10 years since her celebrated US retrospective which opened in 2015 at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago and travelled to the Guggenheim Museum, New York and Perez Art Museum, Miami.

Made in the artist’s studio in Bogotá in Colombia over the last three years, this monumental new work is related to Salcedo’s acclaimed installation Uprooted (2020-22), which she debuted at the 2023 Sharjah Biennial. Describing her work as ‘a topology of mourning’, Salcedo is best known for intricate installations and sculptural works which draw on Colombia’s violent political history, as well as responding to wider global concerns.
