From 18 September to 17 November, 10 Corso Como Gallery hosts Gut, the most comprehensive exhibition to date showcasing the work of US artist Talia Chetrit, curated by Alessandro Rabottini and Anna Castelli.

For her solo exhibition, the artist brings together works from the last twenty-nine years (1994-2023), creating a dialogue between different moments in both her artistic career and her private life.

Self-portraits, family scenes, still lifes, street photography; no subject is excluded from Chetrit’s critical investigation into the current validity of the various genres of photography. These images instill a candid feeling of fragility while remaining confrontational, while expanding contemporary notions of self-representation, sexuality, power dynamics.

Fusing emotional intensity with a specific approach to composition, her pictures can be understood as an exercise in what it means to look at an image and what it feels like to pose for the camera.

Talia Chetrit’s work plays with fiction and can deceptively feel diaristic at times. Her work is filled with and embraces contradictions. Each of these images invites us to reflect on the multifaceted nature of human relationships and the ways in which these dynamics are shaped, standardized, and perpetuated through the domains of representation.
