Social Abstraction

September 10 - November 2
Various Artists

WHAT
The group exhibition is the second instalment of a two-part exhibition curated by Antwaun Sargent. Following the presentation in Beverly Hills this past summer, this iteration is now on display in the gallery’s Hong Kong location. The presentation features new works by Kevin Beasley, Allana Clarke, Cy Gavin, Alteronce Gumby, Lauren Halsey, Kahlil Robert Irving, Devin B. Johnson, Rick Lowe, Eric N. Mack, Cameron Welch, and Amanda Williams – many of whom have never before exhibited in Asia.

WHY
The exhibition’s theme centres on experimental approaches taken by an intergenerational group of Black artists who use abstraction to address culture, perception, and our place in the universe. Working in a wide range of mediums—from oil and acrylic paint to ceramics, mosaic, resin, hair glue, wigs, and textiles, they move beyond formal considerations to engage with themes of identity, sociability, and lived experience.
