Exhibition

Urs Fischer

The first solo exhibition of Urs Fischer in Asia, Gagosian is pleased to present his new works with a title of a musical staff, with a treble clef and several notes position along four – rather than the customary five lines. The notation implies music, but with no apparent tune; it is a title, yet it is inexpressible. This exhibition comprises eleven large-scale tableaux made up of found images, expressive gestures, and photographs of the artist’s personal spaces. But these pictures are neither paintings nor photographs, neither abstract nor representational. By digitally manipulating photographs of brushstrokes, Fischer forges gestural streaks by inserting and blurring images of television screens, faces, and more. The brushstrokes are silkscreened over “homescapes” and “studioscapes” (domestic and atelier views) that provide glimpses of works in progress, art materials, furniture, and artworks from Fischer’s own collection.
