    Artsy April 2, 2019 GAGOSIAN How Takashi Murakami Got His Start as an Artist Scott Indrisek “At the studio I rented for $80 a month on Lorimer Street in Brooklyn, uncertain whether I would have anything to eat the next day.” © Takashi Murakami/Kaikai Kiki Co., Ltd. All Rights Reserved. Courtesy of Gagosian. In the second installment of a new series, we continue to shine a light on the tumultuous early days of artists who have since become household names. Takashi Murakami, 57, may now be an international art star and a cultural icon, but he was once a disgruntled student, bored with his conservative schooling and dreaming of better things. Indeed, when he was just starting out, Murakami claimed no special status as an artist. “I was never particularly talented at drawing or painting,” he said; hard work, practice, and determination would sharpen those skills. He had his first solo show in 1989, at Tokyo’s Ginza Surugadai Gallery, and began traveling from his native Japan to New York City around that time. Murakami always thought of New York as one of the art world’s vital centers, and he was willing to struggle in order to absorb what it had to offer. He recalled once renting a studio on Lorimer Street in Brooklyn for a mere $80 a month (“uncertain whether I would have anything to eat the next day,” he added). In 1994, he landed a residency in the prestigious PS1 International Studio Program. These early experiences helped shape Murakami’s unique artistic vision. The hyperconfident artist would eventually become a global brand, his manga-inspired creations taking over the world—one wild sculpture and painting at a time.

  • Michael Craig-Martin Present Tense
    Michael Craig-Martin Present Tense Exhibition 26 August - 5 November 2016 MICHAEL CRAIG-MARTIN Wir freuen uns ausserordentlich Michael Craig-Martins mit seinen neusten Werken mit einer Einzelausstellung in Zürich zu würdigen und möchten ihm herzlich zu seiner Erhebung in den Ritterstand als Anerkennung für seine „Dienste an die Kunst“ gratulieren. Der britische Künstler Michael Craig-Martin, der bereits im Jahr 2000 von der englischen Königin zum Commander des Britischen Empires (CBE) ernannt wurde, erschien auf der diesjährigen Liste der Ehrungen, die zum Geburtstag der Königin veröffentlich wurde. Diese Anerkennung setzt ein ganz besonderes Highlight in einem sehr ereignisreichen und erfolgreichen Jahr. In den letzten zwölf Monaten war Craig-Martin Thema von zwei grossen, internationalen Einzelausstellungen. Nebst einer Wanderausstellung in den bedeutendsten chinesischen Museumsmetropolen war Craig-Martin 2015 auch in einer grossen Solo-Ausstellung in der Serpentine Gallery in London präsent. Im letzten Jahr erschien zudem Craig-Martins erstes Buch „On Being an Artist“ und er hatte die Ehre als Hauptkoordinator die 2015 Royal Academy Summer Exhibition zu eröffnen. Craig- Martins Arbeit ist derzeit in Gruppenausstellungen in der Tate Britain, Royal Academy und dem Founding Museum in London zu sehen. Eine Begegnung mit den Werken von Michael Craig-Martin ist eine Begegnung mit dem eigenen Alltag der gelebten, von Werbung überhöhten Lebenskultur. Daher auch der vom Künstler gewählte Titel der Ausstellung Present Tense „aktuelle Zeit“. Es liegt eine kühne Raffinesse darin, unscheinbare Utensilien zu Zeitzeugen zu erheben. Spätestens, wenn man im Frühjahr seine grossartige Ausstellung in der Serpentine Gallery in London gesehen hat, kann man sich der Faszination seines Werkes nicht mehr entziehen.

    Financial Times January 20, 2020 GAGOSIAN Living with Damien Hirst and friends Robert Tibbles was an early collector of the Young British Artists — now he is preparing to sell many of his acquisitions Melanie Gerlis Caption (TNR 9 Italicized) Everyone likes to say that they discovered an artist before they were famous, but in the case of the London bond salesman Robert Tibbles, the claim is true. Back in the 1980s, the late art dealer Karsten Schubert introduced Tibbles to the work of an art student called Damien Hirst. Alongside Charles Saatchi, Tibbles then became one of the now-superstar artist’s first buyers. So began an intense, 15-year collecting spree, mostly of works by Hirst and other Young British Artists. These now dominate Tibbles’s Victorian ground-floor flat in London’s leafy Kensington, where an early Hirst spot painting, “Antipyrylazo III” (1994), has loomed almost too large over the living room fireplace since Tibbles bought it in the year it was made. Hanging nearby is another early purchase — Hirst’s degree-show medicine cabinet “Bodies” (1989) — a work that demonstrates Tibbles’s aptitude for picking the right time in the art market as well as the debt markets. He bought the cabinet for £600 (again, in the year it was made) and now, as Tibbles prepares to sell much of his YBA collection at auction at Phillips in London, the cabinet is valued between £1.2m and £1.8m. “There’s no question that the medicine cabinet and other works were not liked or understood by many of my friends.

    Artforum January, 2000 GAGOSIAN 1999 Carnegie International Carnegie Museum of Art Katy Siegel When you walk into the lobby of the Carnegie Museum, the program of this year’s International announces itself in microcosm. There in front of you is atmospheric video projection (Diana Thater), a deadpan disquisition on the nature of representation (Gregor Schneider’s replication of his home), a labor-intensive, intricate installation (Suchan Kinoshita), a bluntly phenomenological sculpture (Olafur Eliasson), and flat, icy painting (Alex Katz). Undoubtedly the best part of the show, the lobby is also an archi-tectural site of hesitation, a threshold. Here the installation encapsulates the exhi-bition’s sense of historical suspen-sion, another kind of hesitation. Ours is a time not of endings but of pause. My favorite work, viewed through the museum’s huge glass wall, was the Eliasson, a fountain of steam wafting vertically from an expanse of water on a platform through which trees also rise up. It’s a heart-throbbing romantic landscape. Romantic, but not naive: The work plays on the tradition of the courtyard fountain, and the steam is piped from the museum’s heating system. Combining the natural and the industrial in a way peculiarly appro-priate to Pittsburgh on a quiet Sunday morning in early autumn, it echoed two billows of steam (or, more queasily, smoke?) off in the distance. When blunt physical fact achieves this kind of lyricism, it is something to see. Upstairs in the galleries, Ernesto Neto’s Nude Plasmic, 1999, relies as well on the phenomenology of simple form, but the Brazilian artist avoids Eliasson’s picturesque imagery.

  • Artist Resources – Cecily Brown (British, B. 1969) Brown at Saatchi Gallery, London Brown at the Gagosian Gallery
    Artist Resources – Cecily Brown (British, b. 1969) Brown at Saatchi Gallery, London Brown at the Gagosian Gallery “I’ve always thought of myself as a figurative painter,” Brown reflected in a video interview from her New York studio in 2014. “There’s always been a strong element of abstraction, but it’s something that happens very naturally…I’m far more interested in the moment where figuration breaks down...if I don’t have some figural idea, I get completely lost.” The National Gallery of Art in D.C. hosted Brown for a conversation about her sources of inspiration in 2016, including Fragonard, Goya, and Bruegel. “I was always really obsessed with art of the past. I never really understood why anyone wouldn’t be…I just felt a really close relationship with art from a hundred years ago. I never felt any distance from it,” Brown explained. “When you’re feeling lost, you can go back to these sources.” Drawing and painted studies are a central part of Brown’s practice. The Drawing Center in New York hosted the first museum exhibition dedication to her works on paper in 2016. The Whitworth, at the University of Manchester, followed in 2018 with drawings of shipwrecks inspired by Gericault and Delacroix. An intimate portrait in photographs by W Magazine showcased Brown her studio as she worked through these studies. Apollo Magazine interviewed Brown as she prepared for her 2018 exhibition at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark. “Seeing a group of works together in a show is like the final part of the whole process of making paintings: seeing how they relate, what story they tell, and what they mean Brown, 2019 once they’re in the world,” Brown explained.

    G A G O S I A N G A L L E R Y August 25, 2008 PRESS RELEASE GAGOSIAN GALLERY 555 WEST 24TH STREET T. 212.741.1111 NEW YORK NY 10011 F. 212.741.9611 GALLERY HOURS: Tuesday – Saturday: 10:00am–6:00pm CECILY BROWN Saturday, September 20 – Saturday, October 25, 2008 Opening reception for the artist: Saturday, September 20th, from 6 to 8pm “I’m more interested in sublimation. I love the way Francis Bacon talked about the grin without the cat, the sensation without the boredom of its conveyance…I’ve always wanted to be able to convey figurative imagery in a kind of shorthand, to get it across in as direct a way as possible. I want there to be a human presence without having to depict it in full.” --Cecily Brown Gagosian Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of recent paintings by Cecily Brown. Brown’s vigorous and tactile oil paintings evoke the breadth of human experience, particularly the emotions associated with touch, pleasure, and passion. Widely inspired by the history of painting, from the figurative orders of Nicolas Poussin, Edouard Manet, and William Hogarth to the heady abstract expressionism of Willem de Kooning, Brown brings to the conventions of the genre a bold and, at times, ribald femininity. Throughout her oeuvre, Brown has repeated certain motifs yet ascribes them different significations over time. For example the tent form -- a primary image in her work that she associates with childhood books and nomads as well as paintings by Picasso, Goya and Bosch—is, in the new work, layered with fresh imagery that obfuscates the original form in varying degrees.

  • Plot 16 Residency - Art in Rose Hill Modern Art Oxford
    The Fermenting Room (return of the rhizome) Plot 16 Residency - Art in Rose Hill Modern Art Oxford plot 16 Introduction by Sarah Mossop Artists’ Thoughts by brook and black The Fermenting Room (return of the rhizome) Plot 16 Residency - Art in Rose Hill Modern Art Oxford Introduction A rhizome, with its associated network of offshoots that develop into new plants, is an apt metaphor for the evolution of Modern Art Oxford’s (MAO) Art in Rose Hill programme. It reflects well how brook & black, the artistic partnership of Leora Brook and Tiffany Black, came to be involved as artists in residence at Plot 16, an allotment at Rose Hill, growing hops (from rhizomes) and making beer, and creating a large sculptural work. The original plan for the off-site programme, which centred on inviting artists ‘to make work in response to and within the communities of Rose Hill’ did not include taking on an allotment, and as such presented a challenge, as well as an opportunity, to take an innovative approach to nurturing new work. The idea of the gallery commissioning new work to take place in Rose Hill was the inspiration of Andrew Nairne, Director at MAO in 2007. Until this time, the Learning Team had worked on numerous offsite community partnership projects, but none of them had lasted beyond a few months, and Andrew was keen for the gallery to develop closer, more sustained partnerships, within one particular community in order to widen access to contemporary art and better understand the dynamics of this mode of working. It was also seen as an opportunity to explore areas of contemporary art practice generally referred to as socially engaged and/or participatory practice that often take place beyond the gallery setting.
