Taken from American artist Mike Kelley's works spanning the late 1970s to 2012, the exhibition displays a menagerie of collage, drawing, performance, found objects and video to explore how we interact with the media we consume. Mike Kelley was known to scour flea markets for, according to Hauser and Wirth "America's cast offs and leftovers." He used these to challenge the West's pre-conceived notion of contemporary art and culture, taking the crumbs of our lives to fashion new indulgence for our souls.

​The gorgeously suave femme fatale, the adorably eccentric manic pixie dream girl, the comfortingly convenient devoted wife, and so much more. Womanhood has been boxed up and labelled into these titles that we feel we must flick through and linger on like items in a catalogue. But what happens when the catalogue is ripped to shreds by hands that seek the truth? “​From ‘wise women’ to ‘witches’, humanity has always held a powerful thread of female knowledge and intuition no matter how much it was hidden, beaten back or ostracised”.

​Irish artist Michael Craig- Martin kickstarted his art career with a Yale degree on the heels of key movements like Minimalism and Pop Art. Rising to fame in the 60s, he can be seen as Warhol's Irish counterpart, using bold colours in their simplest form. Craig-Martin's art employs everyday bric-a-brac such as screws, umbrellas, laptops and smartphones and presents them as larger than life, technicolour versions of themselves.

CAN Gallery is pleased to present the third solo exhibition of Maro Fasouli, titled "Home as Far as You Can Reach, and Field as Far as You Can See." The exhibition delves into Fasouli's research on traditional weaving and architecture, drawing inspiration from anonymous folk art and the rugged, rocky landscape of Exo Meria in Tinos. The artist explores the collapse of boundaries between gender, private and public spaces, and individual and collective, transforming the exhibition space into a symbolic house without walls.
