SUMMARY:Last chance to see: Ketty La Rocca: you you
DESCRIPTION:This autumn, the Estorick Collection presents the first UK
  museum exhibition dedicated to Ketty La Rocca (1938–1976), a trailb
 lazing figure of Italian conceptual and feminist art. Though her caree
 r was cut short by her untimely death at the age of 38, La Rocca’s w
 ork has left a lasting impact, and this landmark exhibition brings her
  bold, witty and thought-provoking vision to a wider audience.\r\nBorn
  in La Spezia, La Rocca moved to Florence in 1956 where she began work
 ing with the avant-garde collective Gruppo 70. Her initial experiments
  included works of visual poetry and collages that explored the pervas
 ive influence of the mass media on daily life, with a particular focus
  on gender issues and socio-political themes. During the early 1970s, 
 she turned to an exploration of gesture, aiming to confront the limita
 tions of patriarchal language structures and advocate for alternative 
 – and arguably more meaningful – forms of communication.\r\nThe sh
 ow provides a comprehensive overview of La Rocca’s artistic evolutio
 n and expressive range, featuring works of photography, video and scul
 pture in addition to examples of her celebrated Riduzioni (Reductions)
 . Progressively deconstructing photographic imagery by means of handwr
 iting and other mark making processes, these fascinating verbo visual 
 works again explore different forms of communication and reflect on th
 e relationship between the artist, the artwork and the viewer.\r\nReso
 nant and urgent, La Rocca’s work feels remarkably contemporary, inte
 rrogating consumer culture and gender dynamics with clarity and force.
  Her work has garnered growing international acclaim in recent years, 
 having been featured in a number of major exhibitions including the Ve
 nice Biennale, and can be found in the permanent collections of MoMA, 
 the Centre Pompidou and the Uffizi.\r\nThe exhibition will be accompan
 ied by a programme of talks and workshops, as well as a fully illustra
 ted publication featuring newly commissioned essays.\n\nFor more infor
