Italian artist Angelo Musco—who, according to his website, is known for “turning reality upside down and creating works that run counter to preconceived ideas”—will exhibit his first solo show in the United States when he holds an opening reception for his show, “Tehom,” Saturday, May 1, at the Carrie Secrist Gallery, 835 W. Washington, 5:30-8:30 p.m.
Two years in production, the show includes Musco’s photo installation “Hadal,” which was shown in the 53rd Venice Biennale last summer. The title piece, “Tehom,” is an underwater world populated with tens of thousands of nude bodies, and will cover the main wall of the gallery, stretching 12 feet by 48 feet. The show will run through Saturday, July 10.
