Publication description:   Mike Kelley and the Cinema is the fifth HB Public event dedicated to the films that have influenced the works of HangarBicocca artists. A passionate movie fan since he was a child, and especially during his college years, Mike Kelley also created video projects himself. He always had a special relationship with cinema, particularly with the cinema genres of popular culture, such as horror, science fiction and underground films. Both in the titles he chose for his works and in the references dotted around in his considerable number of writings, we can see the influence that cinema had on Mike Kelley’s art. In collaboration with Fondazione Cineteca Italiana.

Publication description:   The 1985 Biennial Exhibition continues to use the format adopted for the 1977 Biennial Exhibition: multiple examples of work made during the previous two years by artists chosen collectively by the curators as the most representative of the best American art. This invitational exhibition is not restricted by age or reputation. Younger artists have been chosen for their introduction of new forms and ideas; more established artists because their work has shown consistent growth and has advanced substantially during the last two years. The objective of the exhibition is twofold: to make qualitative judgments at a moment of multiple critical standards, and to assemble as cohesive an overview of current art activity as possible. Ideological and stylistic variety characterizes recent art and no single aesthetic dominates this exhibition.

Exhibition venue:   Tate Gallery Liverpool

Publication description:   The Uncanny is based on a project originally presented by Kelley more than a decade ago, which has been revised and updated for Tate Liverpool in close collaboration with the artist. Freud described the uncanny as ‘a hidden, familiar thing that has undergone repression and then emerged from it’. In The Uncanny, Kelley explores memory, recollection, horror and anxiety through the juxtaposition of a highly personal collection of objects – The Harems – with an investigation of the uncanny through realist figurative sculpture.

Exhibition title:   Mike Kelley

Publication description:   Mike Kelley presents a new two-part mega-sculpture that is a recreation of a local landmark in Los Angeles' Chinatown. Mike Kelley has built an almost perfect replica of the original tourist attraction and will exhibit the rock-like structure and its surrounding fence as separate sculptural components. This theme of presenting the biomorphic or "formless" aspect of the fountain sculpture and its enclosure as objects of different categories is articulated in related photo and painting works. These works are part of an ongoing exploration of the conventions of representing the "formless" in prosaic structures like the rock shaped buildings in Victorian zoos, amusement parks and camouflaged duck blinds.

Exhibition title:   Mike Kelley: Reversals, Recyclings, Completions, and Late Additions

Publication description:   Mike Kelley's new painting and sculpture at Metro Pictures continues his confrontation with "repressed memory syndrome" as it relates to his own art and personal history. The work results from the absurd and obsessive mining of the artist's past, as he recalls details of his childhood, reconstructs locations and recycles materials of prior projects. In its comic futility, the work is both diversely unpredictable and rigorously logical.
