New York: 24th Street

Gladstone Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition by Carroll Dunham, featuring new paintings from his ongoing wrestler series. Dunham’s newest groups of wrestling matches are set amidst barren landscapes, deserted for all but one single tree, wherein the aggressive men are locked into differing moments of struggle. Employing formal techniques developed throughout his career, the works exemplify Dunham’s unique ability to continually recontextualize his distinct visual language through new and recurring modes of artmaking.
