BARBARA STEVENI: I FIND MYSELF
AT MODERN ART OXFORD
1 March–8 June 2025
A first retrospective exhibition of Barbara Steveni’s work, co-curated by Jo Melvin and FTHo Curator/Director Gareth Bell-Jones will be presented at Modern Art Oxford in 2025.
Pioneering and influential, Barbara Steveni worked outside the art gallery to create artworks that were multi-disciplinary and research based, often taking place without participants realising. I Find Myself brings her multi-faceted practice together for the first time to uncover a unique perspective and life.
With a career spanning seventy years, Steveni was influential on artists of many different generations. As part of I Find Myself some of her key collaborators and those influenced by her career will create new commissions restaging and responding to her work including Laure Prouvost, Anne Bean and Eloise Hawser.
