PCAI is glad to announce PCAI collection artist Linder Sterling’s first major exhibition in Japan.
Linder: Goddess of the Mind is a retrospective of the work of artist and punk provocateur Linder, brought to Japan for the very first time.
For more than 50 years, Linder Sterling has assembled images that remain as urgent and iconoclastic today as when she first conceived them. Born in Liverpool in 1954, she emerged from the late 1970s punk scene to become one of Britain’s most influential contemporary artists. Linder is celebrated for her radical use of photomontage to challenge and reimagine ideas of desire and the human body.
Treating images as malleable objects, the artist confronts conformist constraints with beauty and humour. She draws on the spirit of Hannah Höch and the Berlin Dadaists as well as the dreamlike provocations of the Surrealists. Her method—cutting, collaging, and reconfiguring found imagery—reclaims the body from the machinery of desire and exposes the systems that drive power.
Duration: 18 April until 17 May 2026.
