Tacita Dean: Blind Folly is the first major museum survey in the United States of work by British European visual artist Tacita Dean (b. 1965). The exhibition, organized in close collaboration with Dean, spotlights her career-defining approach to creating art through unmediated and chance-based drawing processes across a variety of mediums, from film to printmaking.
Blind Folly, the show’s title, reflects Dean’s desire to let the behavior of her mediums dictate the results of her work. For the artist, the playful and old-fashioned phrase connoting foolishness, “blind folly,” represents the role chance and fate play in the creative act.
The exhibition will include new works inspired by the artist’s time in Houston, some following her residency at the Menil’s Cy Twombly Gallery, alongside Dean’s monumental blackboard drawings and groups of rarely shown drawings from her studio on paper, found postcards, and albumen photographs. A separate gallery will present a rotating group of her 16mm films.

The just-concluded trip to NASA&#39;s Space Exploration Center was amazing to me! 🚀 Here, it seems that I have really crossed the future world, every step on the wave of technology. 🥾🎈 From Earth to the Moon to Mars, every model exhibition is telling about human desire and adventure for the universe. 🔭✊ What shocked me most was the equipment that simulated astronaut training, which made the heart beat faster and felt deeply responsible. 👩&zwj;🚀 This trip not only satisfied my yearning for the unknown world, but also inspired my curiosity and scientific enthusiasm. If you are also passionate about space technology, this location is definitely worth a visit! Come and witness the great moment of human civilization together! #NASA Adventure #Stars and Seas #Technology and Dreams
