Exhibition

// PHREATIC ZONES //

Cristina Iglesias brings the city plaza and London’s river Thames into Marian Goodman’s Gallery with three new horizontal sculptures, lined with bas-reliefs cast in weathered aluminum.

After large scale works in the public realm with Deep Fountain in Antwerp in 1996 and Tres Aguas in Toledo in 2014, she continues to explore the concept of the underground and the well as an allegory of life, sex and death in the contemplative setting of the gallery.

// LATE PAINTINGS //

In its third exhibition of his work, Gagosian New York presents over twenty-five paintings made by Bacon in London and Paris during the last two decades of his life.

 Different from his visceral brushwork of the 1940s to 1970s, Bacon sprayed his paint to add a chiaroscuro and refinement to his familiar figures, forever caught in a sense of primal fear.

// PLATYPUS //

After the Bear, Eric Croes introduces a panoply of animals and random objects to his playful and totemesque reinterpretation of the Surrealists’ exquisite corpse drawings.

 The Platypus, once mistaken for a mythical assemblage of different animals in itself, leads the way.

// ICONS OF THE SIXTIES //

After the Royal Academy’s 2014 ‘The Lost Album’ exhibition, Paris based gallery Thaddaeus Ropac draws our well-deserved attention to a lesser-known aspect of the creative production of Hollywood’s enfant terrible, the late Dennis Hopper.

At the centre of the exhibition sits a selection of 35 vintage photographic prints signed by Hopper, all of which were taken between 1962 and 1967, one of the most creative periods of his life.
