The Sylvio Perlstein Collection. A Luta Continua
Hauser & Wirth is delighted to present 鈥楢 Luta Continua,鈥� an exhibition of the Sylvio Perlstein Collection. This is the first presentation of the Perlstein collection in Asia. Over the course of more than five decades, Perlstein has assembled an intensely personal collection rooted in a passion for the work of groundbreaking artists.
The Collection traces the course of twentieth-century art, from Dada and Surrealism to Abstraction, Land Art, Conceptual Art, Minimal Art, Pop Art, Op Art, Arte Povera, Nouveau R茅alisme, and Contemporary Art. But above all, 鈥楢 Luta Continua鈥� testifies to the power of connoisseurship and collecting as a talent, an art in itself.
Curated by David Rosenberg, 鈥楢 Luta Continua鈥� takes its title from South African artist Thomas Mulcaire鈥檚 eponymous neon sculpture, which translates from Portuguese as 鈥榯he struggle continues鈥� and hangs on the fa莽ade of Perlstein鈥檚 home. 鈥楢 Luta Continua鈥� will span across two floors of Hauser & Wirth鈥檚 Hong Kong space in the H Queen鈥檚 building. This exhibition follows its US presentation at Hauser & Wirth New York last year.
The exhibition focuses on four main pillars of the Perlstein collection: Dada & Surrealism, vintage photography from the twentieth-century, Minimalism, and a compilation of contemporary artists Perlstein is deeply passionate about. There are around 200 works on view by some 112 artists.
