This Summer at Hauser & Wirth’s Wooster Street gallery, Pat Steir will present 'Mirage', a site-specific installation that reconstructs the artist’s first installation from 1975. Installation has been an integral facet of Steir’s practice since this work, when she began painting and drawing directly onto the walls, defining spaces through color and line so that the viewer could stand in the very middle of her work. 'Mirage' builds on and adapts formal elements from Steir’s early installation which explored the foundations of visual and verbal consciousness. Steir has made more than 50 installations for public spaces and institutions including the New Museum, Musée d'art contemporain de Lyon, documenta IX, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and MoMA PS1.
