"Tables you could walk under, stacks of dishes as tall as columns, chairs that, seen from below, resemble towers. . . the artist behind that wonderland is Robert Therrien."  —Giorgia Aprosio, Domus

 

Robert Therrien: This is a Story invites visitors to walk beneath oversized tables and chairs, encounter enormous hanging beards, and navigate stacked dishes that seem to shift before your eyes. Featuring over 120 works, many never before shown in a museum, this special exhibition offers a rare opportunity to engage with Therrien’s playful explorations of memory, perception, and transformation.

Free Thursday Evenings offer complimentary entry to the exhibition, with a tour starting at 6 pm now available.
