As artist, writer and collaborator Nicolás Guagnini suggests, Rosenberg “is flirting with with a taboo: transgression in the family with our children…people instrumentalized by images: totem and taboo”.  The project included collaborations with artists such as Dan Graham, Lawrence Weiner, Haim Steinbach, Lyle Ashton Harris, Louise Lawler, John Miller, Jim Shaw, and Marilyn Minter among many others.

For this exhibition, Rosenberg re-contextualizes the work by altering its scale.  The larger than life-size approach was inspired by Valentin Rothmaler, an artist curator who suggested that Rosenberg  hang her photographs as banners from the rafters at a church in Lübeck, Germany in 2014. As such, the portraits became more iconic.   

Aura Rosenberg’s work can be seen this autumn in the group exhibitions Sylvia Bataille at JOAN, Los Angeles, MOMMY at the Yale Union, Portland, Go Play with the Giant at the Villa Stuck, Munich and the School of Kyiv / Kiev Biennial, Kiev, Ukraine.  Recently her work has been exhibited at, among others, Casino Luxembourg, Museum der Moderne, Salzburg, Le Magasin; Centre D’art Contemporain, Grenoble, France, KW/Kunst-Werke, Berlin, Institute of Contemporary Art/ ICA, Philadelphia, Julia Stoschek Collection, Düsseldorf, Frankfurter Kunstverein, Frankfurt, and the Swiss Institute, New York.

A monograph on the project Who Am I? What Am I? Where Am I? is available and is published by Hatje Cantz.
