We are back again for another week in review. Please continue to help us grow and keep up the good work. Welcome to the .033rd edition of Prescriptions. Here is our review of the week in the arts.
Esther Hunziker
Hi There / Esther Hunziker
In the age of digitalisation, Esther Hunziker comes decisively to terms with how reality and fiction intermingle, how identities appear to be interchangeable and can always be compared with others. Through April 2, 2018 at Kunsthaus Baselland.
Sol LeWitt
Sol LeWitt: Colour
This exhibition focuses on late prints of Sol LeWitt. It is the first solo exhibition of graphic works by the artist to be shown in the UK since his death over ten years ago. Through March 17, 2018 at Alan Cristea Gallery.
Richard Serra
Richard Serra: Black and White
Few artists have pushed printmaking to such sculptural extremes as Richard Serra, who has been making prints for over 45 years. His practice serves to convey weight, stability and density. Through March 17, 2018 at Alan Cristea Gallery.
Vanessa Beecroft
Abstracted Memories: Vanessa Beecroft
Brand new works of fragments of female bodies in clay, colored ceramic heads, and a vast wall sculpture by Vanessa Beecroft, caught between hyper-realist representation and stylized silhouettes. Through March 2, 2018 at Pio Pico Gallery, Los Angeles.
Jacob Riis
Jacob Riis: The Other Half
This exhibition comprises vintage photographs by Riis, viewed as one of the founders of documentary photography, in a series reporting the living conditions of the New York’s destitute. Through April 15, 2018 at Foam, Amsterdam.
Arnold Veber
Circulation(s) / 2018 Edition
