Nana and other stories is an exhibition of new paintings by Cecily Brown at Gladstone in Seoul. Expanding upon her established practice, Brown’s paintings turn inward revisiting works from the artist’s oeuvre some of which were shown in her seminal survey, Death and the Maid, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2023. Preparing this exhibition invoked a new interest in Brown to continue examining previous series and familiar subjects, asserting the artist’s radical ability to reimagine narratives and amplifying her innovative reinterpretation of historical motifs.
