TOBA KHEDOORI

With texts by Anna Lovatt, Mark Godfrey, and Moritz Wesseler

The Fridericianum is pleased to announce the release of the publication TOBA KHEDOORI, which documents the internationally acclaimed artist’s first solo exhibition in Germany (October 2021 – February 2022). The catalog features major works from 1994–2021 that illustrate the diversity and development of Khedoori’s graphic and painterly oeuvre.

Texts by Anna Lovatt, Mark Godfrey, and Moritz Wesseler offer new insights into Khedoori’s immensely detailed and extraordinarily intricate compositions. Her motifs range from buildings, windows, fireplaces, and grids to branches, grass, and clouds, which are reproduced in the book on large full-color plates. 

“Khedoori makes art that reflects and produces a sense of dislocation, again and again. Nothing in her art is an attempt to explain or expound on displacement, to mourn or to refer back to a culture that is lost. However, to my mind, at least, almost everything she makes resonates from this sense of dislocation and reverberates it with remarkable poetry.” – Mark Godfrey
