Exhibition
Mary Reid Kelley & Patrick Kelley: Best Femmes Forever
23 Jan-7 Mar 2026
Pilar Corrias, Conduit Street
London W1S 2YT
Overview
Pilar Corrias is pleased to present Best Femmes Forever, an exhibition of video installation and painting by the American artist duo Mary Reid Kelley and Patrick Kelley.
Best Femmes Forever is a four-channel video work, filmed by Patrick in the pair’s signature black and white and narrated by Mary in her distinctive wordplay-rich verse, as she performs the story of three women who violently lost their lives in the French Revolution: Queen Marie Antoinette, Madame du Barry (Marie Antoinette’s rival at Versailles and the last mistress of King Louis XV) and the Princesse de Lamballe, Marie Antoinette’s best friend, who, after refusing to renounce the queen, was brutally murdered in the September Massacres. The rivalries and emotions between the women unfold in a ribald clerihew battle–short, comic verses that rhyme on a person’s name–between Marie Antoinette and Madame du Barry that playfully riffs on the real sexual jealousy between the pair.
