Pictures at an Exhibition presents images of one notable show every weekday.
Today’s show: “Maja Bajevic: Power, Governance, Labor” is on view at the Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst in Zurich, Switzerland, through Sunday, August 13. The solo exhibition presents a survey of the French-Bosnian artist’s work since the mid-1990s alongside new commissions to demonstrate “Bajevic’s ongoing work on themes like the abuse of power and religion, migration, and marginalisation of the foreign, and the tension between local and global,” according to a press release.
