Llyn Foulkes: Old Man Blues
at Sprüth Magers, Los Angeles
Park La Brea - Los Angeles, CA, USA
Jan 20, 2017 - Mar 04, 2017

Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers are delighted to present the gallery’s first exhibition featuring the work of the celebrated Los Angeles–based artist and musician Llyn Foulkes. Revered as much for his iconic imagery as for his irascible iconoclasm, for nearly six decades Foulkes has produced paintings, assemblages, and collages that have explored the darker corners of the American psyche, while also conveying a sense of hopefulness and possibility through his manipulations of everyday materials into richly layered works of art. Never content with any one medium, technique, or approach, Foulkes has continually bucked art world trends to produce a resolutely singular body of work over the course of his multifaceted career. read more...

Speaking Volumes: Transforming Hate
at Fort Collins Museum of Contemporary Art
Ft. Collins, CO, USA
Jan 20, 2017 - Mar 19, 2017

A rare opportunity for transformation arose in Montana in 2004. A defecting leader of the “Creativity Movement” – one of the most virulent white supremacist hate groups in the nation – presented the Montana Human Rights Network with 4000 volumes of their “bibles,” books promoting extreme anti-Semitic, anti-Christian, racist ideologies. In partnership with the Network, the Holter Museum of Art invited artists across the country to respond to, integrate, or transform the books in provocative ways. read more...

at C. Grimaldis Gallery
Baltimore, MD, USA
Jan 19, 2017 - Mar 04, 2017

C. Grimaldis Gallery is pleased to present Grace Hartigan: The Late Paintings, an exhibition of works from the 1980s – 2000s. Renowned for her formative participation in the Abstract Expressionist movement of the 1950s, Hartigan’s paintings from the latter decades of her career blend figurative content with her signature sensibility of vibrant color, active gesture and painterly freedom. Tracing their lineage from an early abstract practice often integrated with visionary signifiers, these canvases evince the artist’s lifelong integration of art history and popular culture possessed by a spontaneous composition and pictorial subject matter which presage the direction of contemporary painting today. read more...

Strange Days
at Le Plateau, Frac Ile-de-France
19e - Paris, France
Jan 19, 2017 - Apr 16, 2017

Some works seem to be telling us a lot about the world in which we live, about this current period, without explicitly indicating specific events that we could no doubt relate to. Art is always rooted in reality. Whatever the approach adopted by the artists, in principle it expresses a real-life experience. However, without being explicit or intentional, some works more than others reflect developments in the world, the dangers and numerous disturbances. read more...

Zürich, Switzerland
Jan 21, 2017 - Mar 11, 2017

Since the 1980s, Vancouver-based artist Rodney Graham has grown his diverse practice to encompass photography, painting, sculpture, film, video and music. As actor, performer, producer, historian, writer, poet, sound engineer and musician, Graham shifts seamlessly into different roles and characters. For his exhibition at Hauser & Wirth Zu虉rich, Graham presents a new series of his signature photographic lightbox works – elaborate, allegorical and witty compositions focusing on his use of the self-portrait to explore scenarios from our collective cultural memory. read more...

Lehmann Maupin is pleased to announce ingxube, the gallery’s first solo exhibition for Liza Lou, and the artist’s first solo exhibition in Hong Kong. The Los Angeles-based artist divides her practice between studios in California and in KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa, where she established a studio with a team of 30 Zulu artisans in 2005. This close relationship has enabled Lou to further develop her signature medium of glass beads by collectively producing intricately beaded canvases, sculptures, and large-scale installations. read more...

Before the Rain
at 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art
Sydney, Australia
Jan 21, 2017 - Mar 29, 2017

Before the onset of a downpour there is a moment of heavy humidity that hangs low in the air. Building over time it signals the inevitability of a deluge that will interrupt and intercept patterns of normality. For Hong Kong, a city defined by humidity, the deluge that began on September 28 2014 was the result of a long and steady buildup of uncertainty, anxiety and the long held need to articulate a cohesive identity for the city.  Before the Rain addresses the tensions that precipitated the recent political and civil urgency in Hong Kong and the city’s pressing need to reimagine its future. read more...
