tara donovan’s stratagems engages skyscraper architectureTara Donovan presents Stratagems at the Transamerica Pyramid Center, installing a group of vertically oriented sculptures made entirely from thousands of recycled CDs. On view until July 31st, 2026 and organized by the Institute of Contemporary Art San Francisco (ICA SF), the exhibition is installed within the transparent Annex space. Stratagems enters into a deliberate exchange with the building itself, echoing the skyscraper’s verticality and reflective skin, while their recycled material introduces a counterpoint to the monumentality of the building. Stratagems continues this trajectory, shifting scale and focus toward the city itself, extending her logic toward architecture. The exhibition reflects ICA San Francisco’s nomadic approach, which situates contemporary art within the city.
