Join Boffo in celebrating the conclusion of Frieda Toranzo Jaeger's residency. Enjoy an exhibition of work by BOFFO's final Artist in Residence. Frieda Toranzo Jaeger's practice contends with representations of femininity and masculinity and the visual culture of late capitalism. For the culmination of her Residency, Jaeger will present new paintings on the beautiful bayside of Fire Island.

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 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.
