Tureen will present work by Jacci Den Hartog at the 2025 edition of Independent 20th Century. Known for her distinctive fusion of art historical image-making, ecological form, and visceral materiality, Den Hartog emerged in the 1980s with work that challenged prevailing tendencies in sculpture. Tureen’s focused presentation of early to mid 1990s works will revisit a formative period in the artist’s career, featuring rarely seen works that foreground her idiosyncratic use of material—from poured resin to vividly painted plaster—and her early exploration of psychological and physical terrains.

‍
This marks the first time in over two decades that Den Hartog’s early work will be shown in such depth on the East Coast, offering a timely reconsideration of her impact on post-minimalist practices of the late 20th century—Tureen’s presentation reifies Den Hartog’s contribution to a generation of artists negotiating place, form, and perspective in a contemporary cultural landscape. And in revisiting these early works, Tureen seeks to illuminate the foundations of that contribution, one that continues to expand the reaches of sculptural phenomenon.
