Kendell Geers
Fucking Wonderland, Joyous Wisdom 03, 2009. Plexiglass mirror 200cm (diameter).

'A Guest + A Host = A Ghost'

Kendell Geers at Steven Friedman Gallery

Kendell Geers is known for work that confronts the viewer head on, often startling the eye and requiring a degree of interrogation from the spectator. In this new body of work, Geers instigates a dialogue with ‘readymade’ icon and Dadaist great, Marcel Duchamp, and presents a series of glass and mirrored sculptures. Neither homage nor naïve appropriation, this new body of work demands that the viewer reassess pre-conceived notions of the ‘authentic’ – both in the art world and in wider political spheres.

27 November - 16 January
