Match Made in Venice: Tadao Ando and Zeng Fanzhi

‘[Tadao Ando's] design achieves a synthesis of Eastern and Western philosophies of painting, all presented through architecture. It inspired me as I worked on the paintings for the exhibition.’

In conversation: Pat Steir with Pepe Karmel

‘I don’t have to have one style. I don’t have one hairdo in my whole life. I don’t have one jacket. Why should I have one style to identify myself? My groups of paintings are like bodies of work. They can last for a year or ten years. But they’re all research for me.’

Glenn Ligon: 'The idea of coal dust being elevated into the space of art was something that interested me'

‘Baldwin talks about how the place of the 'disesteemed' is where you learn the most about how a society functions. The idea of coal dust, a waste product, elevated into the space of art was something that interested me.’

Pat Steir at Hauser & Wirth

‘Steir’s paintings appear to revel solely in the pigment’s optical and physical properties as a haptic material. And because color is primarily a matter of light, her specific focus on the color blue makes light itself an integral ingredient in the work’s visual dynamism. As such, these paintings also nod to the ineffable subjectivity of perception.’

Critic's Picks: 'Implicit Explicit'

‘The show is rife with tensions between old and new, banality and wonder; and puts a thematic emphasis on materiality, feminism, and environmental destruction… exhibitions like this underscore how materials and techniques traditionally associated with functional or folk art can amplify meaning and symbolism.’
