Munich, Germany - The Pinakothek der Moderne is staging this American artist's first retrospective. The focus is being placed on Zoe Leonard's photographic work of the past twenty years, their subtle, visual look at the relationship between the sexes, the ambivalence between culture and nature, history and the present day, as well as the relation between space and time. Leonard, born in 1961 in Liberty, New York, is one of the most exceptional artists of her generation. Among other venues, her works were shown at the documenta in 1992 and 2007.
