Exhibition description List of works Further information

The migros museum will be presenting Switzerland’s first comprehensive one-man exhibition by the Californian artist Mike Kelley. On show will be three fairly monumental installations and a couple of small-format work groups. Kelley’s works have subversive potential. In his art the American exploits seemingly banal objects and uses them repeatedly to expose hidden meanings.
