Stefan Brüggemann in conversation with Randy Kennedy

  • 22 July 2020

Stefan Brüggemann and Randy Kennedy, Hauser & Wirth’s Director of Special Projects and editor of Ursula magazine, discuss the artist’s recent body of gold leaf works made during the lockdown in 2020, on view at Hauser & Wirth St Moritz 11 July – 30 August 2020.

Spanning–and sometimes combining–sculpture, video, painting, and drawing, Stefan Brüggemann’s work deploys text in conceptual installations rich with acerbic social critique and a post pop aesthetic. Born in Mexico City and working between Mexico and London, the artist’s oeuvre is characterized by an ironic conflation of Conceptualism and Minimalism. Randy Kennedy has been the gallery’s Director of Special Projects and editor of Ursula magazine since 2018. He was a reporter at The New York Times for 23 years, more than half of those writing about the art world.

Stefan Brüggemann UNTITLED ACTION (GOLD PAINTINGS)’, is on view at Hauser & Wirth St. Moritz, 11 July – 30 August 2020.
