LGW: Hauser & Wirth Exhibition Tour

  • Fri 4 June 2021
  • 12 – 5.30 pm

As part of London Gallery Weekend, join us for a tour of current exhibition ‘Frank Bowling. London / New York’ and ‘Ellen Gallagher. Ecstatic Draught of Fishes’ led by Hauser & Wirth London’s Senior Directors.

 

Over the course of six decades, Sir Frank Bowling has relentlessly pursued a practice which boldly expands the possibilities and properties of paint. Ambitious in scale and scope, his dynamic engagement with the materiality of his chosen medium, and its evolution in the broad sweep of art history, has resulted in paintings of unparalleled originality and power.

 

Living and working between Rotterdam and New York, Ellen Gallagher builds intricate, multi-layered works that pivot between the natural world, mythology and history. Her process involves undoing and reforming trains of thought often over long periods of time and across linked bodies of works.

 

Tours will take place at 12 pm and 5 pm for 30 minutes. This is a free event, but must be booked in advance. Please book a timed reservation here.
