Kiang Malingue is pleased to announce that Carrie Yamaoka is in “In Minor Keys”, International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia by Koyo Kouoh, from 9 May to 22 Nov, 2026, with preview days on May 6-8.

Yamaoka’s individual practice is the focus of arms ache avid aeon, Chapter Nine, a project conceived by Jo-ey Tang, alongside her co-founding members, Nancy Brooks Brody, Joy Episalla, and Zoe Leonard, of the artist collective fierce pussy. arms ache avid aeon formed around queer and AIDS activism in 1991 in New York City. Since 2015, each exhibition chapter of arms ache avid aeon examines relationships between individual and collective art practices in counterpoint to the political landscape. The artists contend with boundaries between representation and abstraction, mutability and permanence, and personal and collective histories, through their formal and material experimentation. Chapter Nine gathers works from 1991 through 2026, reconsidered amid climate collapse and a global authoritarian turn. Embedded within the marginal spaces and precarious ruins of crisis lies the potential for metamorphosis.

Carrie Yamaoka’s work is on view in Giardini’s Central Pavilion, and fierce pussy’s work is on view at the Biglietteria Scarpa at the entrance of the Giardini, and the entrance of the Arsenale.

Coinciding with the collective’s participation of La Biennale di Venezia, this eponymously titled publication by fierce pussy brings together thirty-nine of the legendary art collective’s posters, from works made in the urgent early days of the AIDS crisis to present-day advocacy for Queer and Trans rights. In keeping with fierce pussy’s activism in public spaces, the publication is designed to allow readers to tear out any of the posters to share, wheatpaste, scan, photocopy, and distribute or to easily open the book to any page to hang it on a wall. Combining calls for political and social action, proud reclamations of derogatory language, and pointed questions, the posters in fierce pussy address pressing sociopolitical issues in the group’s distinctive voice.
