From May 5 to 11, Christie’s will present an exclusive exhibition dedicated to the work of British artist and designer Marianna Kennedy. For this exceptional event, Christie’s is delighted to entrust its Parisian galleries to Tilda Swinton’s unique vision. Curated by Swinton, Supersonic Mediaeval unites Kennedy’s most significant works, seamlessly blending modernity and tradition. The title, a playful homage to Swinton’s deep admiration for Kennedy’s art, embodies the fusion that lies at the core of the artist’s practice.

The exhibition transforms the space into a cinematic environment, drawing inspiration from the historic houses of Spitalfields, while Kennedy’s use of materials—resin, wood, bronze, and Murano glass—reinterprets traditional craftsmanship through a contemporary lens.

This retrospective offers a profound insight into Kennedy’s creative journey, continuing Christie’s Carte Blanche series, which celebrates contemporary innovation across various artistic disciplines.
