Gagosian NOW - The latest at Gagosian.

SEPTEMBER 20, 2017

What's the latest NOW? What is the function of a portrait? To memorialize? To capture someone’s “essence”? These questions run throughout the history of visual culture—from the Roman death masks of antiquity to the covers of fashion magazines.

In his upcoming exhibition, “Innocence II,” opening at Gagosian San Francisco on September 21st, Roe Ethridge complicates the questions of portraiture, revealing how various layers of the self coalesce within a single image, whether an iPhone screenshot, a nude self-portrait, or a photograph of one’s childhood home. Using his own past as source material, Ethridge locates the intersection of recognition and estrangement, tracing the history of photography along the way. Read more by clicking the link below!

NOW—FLASH FLASH FLASH

September 15, 2016

In tattooing we always listen to what we want. It never matters what the client thinks. Most shops play heavy metal or boring top 40 rap. Flyrite is the best because we all have a wide range of taste and we rarely adhere to trends. Tattooing and music symbolize freedom to us. — Fernando Lions Fernando Lions and Gill Goldstein from Flyrite Tattoo, in Brooklyn, will be tattooing patrons at FLASH FLASH FLASH, the Gagosian Gallery booth at Printed Matter's New York Art Book Fair, taking place from September 16 through 18, at MoMA PS1, in Long Island City, New York. The limited edition tattoo designs, by Devendra Banhart, Douglas Gordon, Kim Gordon, Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, Max Hooper Schneider, and Richard Wright, will be available at Project Room 3. Check out some of the tunes these Flyrite guys listen to while working by clicking here (www.gagosian.com/NOW)

A new series of drawings by #JennySaville is on view at #GagosianDaviesSt, London through July 9th. “The title 'Erota' for the show is related to the ancient Greek concept of eros: the idea of a creative life force and love of the body,” writes Saville. Gagosian's Richard Calvocoressi discusses the inspiration behind Saville’s new body of work in a text on NOW (www.gagosian.com/NOW) __________ Image: "Reflective Flesh study (Red)," 2015, charcoal and pastel on paper mounted on board, 78 3/4 × 59 13/16 inches (200 × 152 cm) © Jenny Saville.
