Monica Bonvicini
With 'I CANNOT HIDE MY ANGER' the artist Monica Bonvicini makes direct reference to the architecture and history of Belvedere 21 in Vienna.She transforms the central hall of the former World's Fair pavilion with a radical intervention that reflects on controversial social questions.Monica Bonvicini has been grappling with the psychology of the space as well as institutional critique in her site-specific installations since the start of the 1990s.Through this she radically lays bare the common narratives of art history and questions outdated social concepts about masculinity and power, intimacy and domesticity, global warming and geopolitical borders, offering a critical perspective on today's Western society.The publication presents ruthless political works created by the artist since 2017.English and German text.Co-published with Belvedere.Accompanies the exhibition 'Monica Bonvicini: I CANNOT HIDE MY ANGER', 28 Jun - 27 Oct 2019, Belvedere 21, Vienna.All inside images courtesy Belvedere 21 - Installation view 'Monica Bonvicini.

Can't Go Home
“Do you remember Savannah?” How could she forget? Two decades ago, Trinity Calhoun's best friend—18-year-old Savannah Stuart—went missing. Just weeks later, Savannah’s body was found brutally slain outside the mountain town. With no suspects or leads, the local authorities dismissed the murder as a tragic one-off, likely perpetrated by a tourist. But Trinity wasn’t convinced. Determined to do better for other victims, she left town and settled in Vancouver, rising through the ranks to become a detective. She’s never looked back. But now, an unexpected phone call from her former lover has her barreling down the highway to face the past. Another young woman has disappeared under eerily similar circumstances. Allegedly. But the local police are disinterested. Trinity’s ex has a tenuous—at best—hold on his mental and physical health. And Savannah’s secretive and handsome brother is in town, asking an awful lot of questions. Trinity’s focus is clouded. Maybe her judgment, too. As she wades through her past, she needs to answer a potentially life-threatening question: is there a dangerous, repeat criminal on the loose, or is she just desperate for closure?
