Shahzia Sikander

The most comprehensive presentation of Sikander’s work to date, Collective Behavior brings together more than 30 works made over three and a half decades, alongside new site-specific drawings and glass work that respond to the architecture and history of the Palazzo Soranzo Van Axel, the city of Venice, and global histories of trade and artistic exchange.

The exhibition includes Sikander's breakthrough work The Scroll (1989-90), created for the artist's graduate thesis project at Lahore’s National College of Arts, which established her position at the vanguard of the neo-miniature movement.

Organised and presented by the Cincinnati Art Museum and the Cleveland Museum of Art.
