Paulina Olowska @ Pace Gallery

The Revenge of the Wise Woman, is a tableaux vivant performance by Paulina Olowska starring artist Julie Harman Dovan.  This installation of paintings and performance is a montage of visual and aural influences, spanning experimental Soviet theatre, craftsmanship, and modernist rhetoric.

Encompassing painting, sculpture, printmaking, neon, and performance, Olowska’s distinctive practice is a multisensorial world of mysterious women, rural imagery, and folkloric influences infused with Eastern European culture, politics, and poetry.  At the core of Olowska’s practice is an examination of the representation of women in contemporary culture.
