Author: Ghenie, Adrian
This book documents a selection of works from Ghenie's latest exhibition. Influenced by Impressionist painters, as well as Turner, Van Gogh and Gauguin, Ghenie’s meditation on the idea of 'hooliganism' examines the role of rebellion in an artist’s process, working to reject or ignore traditionalism to create the new. The artist's newest body of work, these nine paintings and three drawings continue Ghenie’s exploration of abstracting figures, layering shapes and gestural painting techniques.He creates complex images intertwined with art historical narratives. An art historical text by Apsara DiQuinzio traces the trajectory of Ghenie's practice through to today. In her new text, Masha Tupitsyn discusses the concept of the double, looking at its history in philosophy, literature, film and art.
