The exhibition “Roni Horn: You are the Weather” at Fondation Beyeler showcases the work of American artist Roni Horn, known for her minimalist and conceptually rich approach to art. The title draws from one of Horn’s notable works, You are the Weather (1994–1996), a series of photographs featuring a young woman in Iceland’s geothermal pools, her face subtly shifting with the changing weather conditions. This piece reflects Horn’s recurring themes of identity, mutability, and the relationship between humans and their environment.
The exhibition explores Horn’s diverse practice, which spans photography, sculpture, drawing, and installation. Her works often engage with natural elements—water, light, and weather—and challenge viewers to consider perception and presence.
