@ Lisson Gallery

“Drawing on
the ubiquitous
imagery of urban
scenes and the
cityscape, recalling
the vocabulary of
everyday life but
instilling it with
a new energy and
vitality...”
Born:
1958 – London,
United Kingdom.
The exhibition:
For his first solo
with Lisson Gallery
in Shanghai, Opie
presents seven
works depicting
new subjects in
a variety of media,
with three large-scale
group portraits,
three stand-alone
sculptures, and one
moving computer
animation.
“A central motif
of Opie’s work is
the human figure,
whether depicted
running, posing,
walking or dancing,
alone or in crowded
cities.”
