Ray Caesar: Winter 2022
Ray Caesar has become a worldwide phenomenon in recent years. His work is collected by the Hearst Family, Riccardo Tisci of Givenchy, Madonna, the Bristol Museum, and his work has been selected by Museum of Modern Art and Guggenheim, New York. Caesar's fascinating alienating worlds cannot be separated from his English, sometimes violent childhood. His experiences while working - for 20 years - at the Children's Hospital in Toronto underpin his view of 'good and evil', which is reflected in many of his works.
This central theme, the innocence and its downside, plays a major role in the Winter group show at KochxBos.
Caesar is the pioneering artist in digital technology. He uses the 3D animation program Maya, in which models are made for animation films and computer games. The elaboration of the images and details goes beyond the 2D world that we see. A virtual world where Caesar can walk around, his figures can be seen from all sides and personal letters or treasures are kept in drawers, and can also be opened. The works in the gallery can best be described as photographs of this fascinating and beautifully complex world. Caesar returns to the roots of one of his previous great successes.
