Meow Meow Real Estate
Nicoletta Fiorucci FoundationNancy Lupo presents Meow Meow Real Estate, her debut solo exhibition in the UK, at the Nicoletta Fiorucci Foundation in London. The exhibition, curated by Vittoria de Franchis, shares its title, Meow Meow Real Estate , with the artist’s first novel recounting a woman looking for an apartment. The search is both literal and existential. The physical space of the Nicoletta Fiorucci Foundation in London’s Chelsea neighbourhood, with its distinguishing Victorian features, becomes the bourgeois dwelling at the core of Lupo’s narrative fantasy. Through sculpture and a real estate listing, Lupo’s exhibition positions the apartment as a meat - space mirage shaped by wistful projections and housing speculation. “I keep thinking the solution to a lot of things would be this big an d beautiful bourgeois apartment. Everything could happen there, my being, my bathing, my cabinet of costumes. But maybe it's better to just stay in the hotel forever holding aloft the dream of something else; a permanent situation where my feet don't touch the ground. Like an angel, truly and actually.” —Nancy Lupo Nancy Lupo is an artist currently based in Berlin. Her sculptures engage with material culture and language, exploring how collective fantasies and emotions become embedded in form. She tests ambiguity and confusion as conditions that are both unsettling a nd full of potential. Lupo holds degrees from The Cooper Union and Yale University. Since 2024, she has been a professor at Kunsthochschule Mainz. Recent exhibitions include Final Closet at Chiaromonte, Turin, Italy (2025); Hark at Kristina Kite Gallery (2 025); Disko at Kevin Space, Vienna, Austria (2025); Our Villas at Apollo, Mainz, Germany (2025); Princessletthewind at Kunstverein Schwerin, Schwerin, Germany (2025); and Hallelujah Electricity at Good Weather, Little Rock, Arkansas (2025).
