Sunrise
The MAK Center for Art and Architecture, Schindler House, is pleased to present an exhibition of Alex Katz. The exhibition Sunrise by Alex Katz is the latest iteration by the 95-year-old artist’s ongoing series he refers to as ‘splits’. Using a cut-up technique he blends inspiration from Manet’s pictures of women in hats in the sun, the fractured imagery from early cubism as well as the ‘cheap’ quality in Fassbinder’s ‘Beware of a Holy Whore,’ these large-scale immersive portraits of Sunrise Coigney encapsulate the fleeting nature of the gaze inside everyday life.
This exhibition of one of the foremost contemporary figurative painters is presented with support from Gladstone Gallery.
