‘Start from the ugly ... and the uglier you make it, you attain, you squeeze out of it, that kind of beauty.’—Leon Golub
Earlier this year, we presented ‘Leon Golub. Et In Arcadia Ego. Conceived by Rashid Johnson’ at our New York, 22nd Street gallery.
This exhibition took the work of late American master
@LeonGolub as a starting point to consider artists’ approaches to issues of conflict and uncertainty.
