Artist Talk: Frieda Toranzo Jaeger

Join BOFFO as we welcome Frieda Toranzo Jaeger to Fire Island at her Artist Talk!

Frieda Toranzo Jaeger (b. 1988 Mexico City, Mexico) lives and works in Mexico City, Mexico. Her pictorial work with feminist and postcolonial concerns also manages to question the formal structures of the medium itself. Her practice also deals with the representations of masculinity and femininity in the visual culture of late capitalism. She obtained her postgraduate degree from the Hochschule Für Bildende Künste Hamburg, after having completed her professional studies there. Frieda has been awarded the HISCOX Art Prize in 2016 and The Finkenwerder Förderpreis Prize in 2022. Frieda’s main solo shows include A future in the light of darkness, Modern Art Oxford; Autonomous Drive, MoMA PS1; The Perpetual Sense of Redness, Baltimore Museum of Art; Her work has been featured at last year Venice Biennale Arte 2024: Stranieri Ovunque - Foreigners Everywhere. She is currently a certificate student at the new center for research and practice in critical philosophy.
