Collection Sandretto
Re Rebaudengo: Have you seen me before?

Whitechapel Gallery

18 June – 8 September
2013

Patrizia Sandretto
Re Rebaudengo has enjoyed the status of one of Europe’s most prominent collectors
of contemporary art since acquiring her first Maurizio Cattelan work in 1996.
This past year has seen the Whitechapel Gallery share some of the highlights of
her collection, otherwise rarely publicly seen, in four neatly curated
quarterly displays. Following on from A Love Meal (
19 March – 9 June 2013), which
focused primarily on 3D works, Have you seen me before?, the fourth and final
display, contains considerably more 2D works, a couple of sound pieces, and a
whole host of glittering names: it’s almost like roll call for contemporary
art’s A-stream.
