The exhibition at Hauser & Wirth will present the artist’s latest achievements in drawing. The medium, that she herself once famously described as “a kind of breathing activity on a daily level”.
On view starting February 18th through April 10th, the exhibition will give the audience a chance to see for the first time one of the artist’s most ambitious works on paper to date— the monumental installation of ‘LOG(March 22, 2019 – May 17, 2020)’. Displayed as a series of over 400 individual sheets of paper, it contains a sequence of casual handwritten notes, observations, facts, quotes, original texts, news, collages, drawings, photographs, and lists created daily over the course of fourteen months. Quite a glimpse to the artist’s mind, who has spent the past four decades questioning accepted notions of identity and meaning. In addition, the exhibition unpretentiously titled “Recent Work” will put on the view the artist’s Wits’ End Mash series on explorations of language, and Yet series.
