Astrup Fearnley Museet and WIELS Brussels announce the first posthumous retrospective of American conceptual artist Lutz Bacher (1943–2019). This landmark exhibition offers an expansive view of Bacher’s provocative, genre-defying oeuvre, spanning over four decades of uncompromising artistic production.

Early in her career the artist adopted her fictional, masculine-sounding pseudonym, insisting on an open-ended understanding of authorship and identity in a practice that resisted categorization.

Throughout her career Lutz Bacher remained an enigmatic figure whose influential yet elusive practice occupied a singular position in contemporary art. Burning the Days is the first posthumous exhibition to cover the full breadth of her artistic life.
