until 02.11. | #4406ARTatBerlin | Sprüth Magers Berlin shows from 14. September 2024 the exhibition Ahmedabad 1992 by the artist John Baldessari.
Throughout John Baldessari’s prolific and impactful career, he consistently examined and defied the expectations that influence our perception of art. His unique methodology in the realms of painting, photography, source materials, and text redefined and challenged conventional art historical limitations, making him a pioneer of American Conceptualism. Drawing from a wide range of sources – advertising, film culture, Marcel Duchamp, and Ludwig Wittgenstein – he created absurdist, complex yet accessible juxtapositions.
Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers are pleased to present the second iteration of Ahmedabad 1992, a solo exhibition of an alluring series of mixed media assemblages Baldessari produced during his residency in India. For the first time in decades, a selection from this unique period in the artist’s oeuvre was initially shown during summer 2024 at the London gallery. Introducing the body of work to Berlin viewers, Ahmedabad 1992 will travel to the gallery’s German space for Berlin Art Week.
Exhibition dates: Saturday, 14. September until Saturday, 02. November 2024
Additional Opening Hours during Berlin Art Week:
Saturday, 14. September 2024, 11-6 pm.
Sunday, 15 September, 2024, 11-6 pm.
