GROUP EXHIBITION

Hard Ground MoMA PS1 16 May–14 October 2024 New York

Press Release

This spring, MoMA PS1 will present Hard Ground, a group exhibition that features work by seven New York-based artists who employ processes of compression, distillation, and subtraction. On view beginning May 16, the presentation provides a snapshot of this underexplored but significant tendency in contemporary art and includes over 40 works whose materials range from limestone and bronze to Dr. Pepper and a smelted Citi Bike. Diverging from a logic of assemblage and aggregation, these practices query how correlations between productivity, surface, and value are forged.

_Hard Ground _is organized by Jody Graf, Assistant Curator, MoMA PS1.
