“All spaces have meanings and associations, and I use space as a palpable material.” ––Maren Hassinger
Multidisciplinary artist Maren Hassinger reimagines her iconic pink installation Embrace/Love in Love (for Minneapolis)—a healing intervention for The Great Northern 2023. This site-responsive work, made collaboratively with MCAD students, engages the present environment. Wander through the space during The Great Northern Jan 26-Feb 5 to observe how the installation reacts to its surroundings.
Maren Hassinger was the Emeritus Director of the Rinehart School of Sculpture at the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore, which she led for 20 years. During a career that has spanned more than four decades, Hassinger has explored relationships between the industrial and natural worlds in a practice that is both meditative and critical. Currently, her work is focused on exploring issues of equality.
