Elizabeth Jaeger: Contempt: Shanghai

Capsule Shanghai is delighted to present ‘Contempt’, the first solo exhibition in China by the New York-based artist Elizabeth Jaeger (b. 1988 San Francisco; lives and works in New York). Loosely inspired by Alberto Moravia’s novel of the same name, ‘Contempt’ brings together Jaeger’s most recent body of works, notably ceramic and metal pieces specifically made for this show. The exhibition unfolds across four halls of the gallery - all of which are interconnected yet independent - and explores the idea that contempt permeates various aspects of human life, whether manifested individually or societally.
