2-TIMES • Art
Adrian Ghenie,
‘The Hooligans’
@ Pace Gallery
— 

“The word
hooliganism
suggests something
loud, exterior,
aggressive and in
your face. But in
art it shows itself
in the most discrete
ways...” 

The exhibition: 
Is the Romanian
artist's fourth solo
with Pace Gallery,
bringing together
nine paintings and
three drawings, all
made during the
last year.

“Ghenie’s meditation
on the idea of
“hooliganism”
examines the crucial
role of rebellion in
an artist’s process,
working to reject or
ignore traditionalism
to create the new.” 

Influences:
Impressionist
painters, as well as
J.M.W. Turner,
Vincent Van Gogh,
and Paul Gauguin.
