undefined is an exhibition at Château Shatto on view from Invalid Date NaN, NaN.

Ma is an exhibition curated by Fiona Connor at Château Shatto, sprung from the artist’s encounters with the photographic archives of Frank J. Thomas.

For Ma, Connor has composed a group of works that she understands as being nourished by similar concerns that she first responded to in Frank J. Thomas’ photographs, more specifically his documentation of the paintings of John McLaughlin. Ma includes works by Judy Fiskin, Sydney de Jong, John McLaughlin, Frank J. Thomas, Audrey Wollen, Bedros Yeretzian and Fiona Connor. The exhibition design has been undertaken by Sebastian Clough..
