One of the most influential American artists to emerge in the last fifteen years,
Andrea Zittel investigates contemporary life in Western societies through work that engages with both architecture and design, exploring the psychological, biological and economic aspects of domestic and urban existence. This exhibition, the first comprehensive solo exhibition of Zittel's work in the United States, features the work she has created under the name A-Z Administrative Services. Her Living Units, Escape Vehicles and the complete line of A-Z Personal Uniforms will be on view at the New Museum, as will new work developed at A-Z West, the artist's studio in California.
