Gagosian to Participate in Art Basel Miami Beach 2022

Gagosian is pleased to present a selection of modern and contemporary works at #artbaselmiamibeach2022. Returning to #miami for the fair's twentieth anniversary, the gallery is honored to have participated each year the fair has been held.

Highlights include a stack work from 1988 by Donald Judd, composed of cantilevered rectangular units arrayed serially. The bifurcated units are made of anodized aluminum with interior planes of cadmium red and black plexiglass, establishing what Judd called "a definitive second surface." The sweeping brushstrokes of Helen Frankenthaler's Etruscan Walk (1978) establish a composition of interlocked horizontal and vertical passages. Painted in what she termed "terra-cotta colors" partially inspired by the American West, the canvas evokes landscape.

Sarah Sze creates a sense of dynamic, provisional order in her Left Field (Times Zero) (2019), a multilayered work that combines varied brushwork with collaged images of hands, strips of fabric, and compositional notes on torn pieces of paper. A new work by Albert Oehlen incorporates gestural painting and imagery from a billboard, deconstructing and regenerating its pictorial elements. Jordan Wolfson's Untitled (2022) evokes a contemporary altarpiece adorned with an image of a soiled hand holding a cross, fruit, animals, and emojis, and text that personifies and amplifies contemporary anxieties. Rick Lowe meditates on the conjunction of studio and social practice with a new painted and collaged work, its patterning resembling urban maps. Harold Ancart continues his exploration of the natural world with a vibrant abstraction of a palm tree. Titus Kaphar's painting Seeing Through Time 10 (2022) uses a multiplanar structure to site and to challenge colonial representation as continually relevant to the present.

Rachel Whiteread made SIT (2007–08) with an empty tubular steel chair frame and a stack of painted plaster casts that occupy its seat and rise to the height of its back. Conceived on a domestic scale, the sculpture reappraises both the logic of Minimalism and our relationships to the built environment. Green Fortune (2008) by Franz West is composed with epoxy resin and bright green lacquer. With its intentionally ungainly forms, it operates between categories of sculpture and furniture, epitomizing both West's desire to suspend categories and his provocative wit.
