Wangechi Mutu’s New Museum survey places sculpture in dialogue with collage

THE STORY, IN BRIEF

Reviewing Wangechi Mutu’s Intertwined for Hyperallergic, Hrag Vartanian argued that her recent sculptures brought the fragmented energies of her drawings and collages into new material forms. He praised her handling of scale and imaginative treatment of African and feminine power while questioning several installation choices. The review recorded a major survey as a moment of artistic development, not simply a retrospective celebration.
