Paris Internationale 2023
Petrine is pleased to announce its first participation at Paris Internationale with a series of new work by Sophie Kovel.
Sophie Kovel examines the social, economic, aesthetic, and ideological operations of ethnonationalism. For Paris Internationale, Kovel presents new work that addresses the politics of public disclosure, civic and political whistleblowing, and the financialization of the U.S. Supreme Court.
Sophie Kovel is an artist and writer. Kovel’s criticism and conversations have been published in Artforum, BOMB, Frieze, Spike, Jeu de Paume Magazine, and elsewhere. Recent exhibitions include UncleBrother, New York; Independent Study Program, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Petrine, Paris (2023); Jenkins Johnson Gallery, New York; The Jewish Museum, New York (2022); and Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Copenhagen (2021).
