Magazzino Italian Art has installed two pieces in memory of Mel Bochner, who passed in February 2025. Bochner's Meditation on the Theorem of Pythagoras, and Blah, Blah, Blah are now on view in Gallery 2 of the Robert Olnick Pavilion until April 28, 2025.
Mel was a pioneering figure in Conceptual Art whose work transformed the boundaries of language, perception, and materiality. Bochner challenged conventional art-making techniques, using language, mathematics, and seriality to expose the unspoken codes that shape our engagement with the world.
