In 2018, Banerjee’s first North America solo retrospective “Rina Banerjee: Make Me a Summary of the World” opened at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. Her works are included in many private and public collections such as the Whitney Museum of American Art, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and Centre Pompidou.
