Mark Bradford @
Hauser & Wirth,
Hong Kong
—
“I have always
been interested
in the notion of
community and,
in the most
fundamental way,
in the things that
separate certain
groups from
others.”
The exhibition:
Is the inaugural show
of Hauser & Wirth's
Hong Kong space,
presenting new works
that are a continuation
of the themes American
artist Mark Bradford
has explored throughout
his entire career —
most prominently,
the distribution and
representation of
power within societal
structures.
Inspired by:
Bradford returns to
the motif of the ‘map’
as a point of departure
for mining this topic.
—
“Traditionally, maps
are these finite,
informational tools,
but in these works
they evoke questions
about the individuals
inhabiting these
spaces, and about
what these printed
lines aren’t necessarily
showing us.”
