Tai Kwun Contemporary is proud to present a major survey exhibition by the US-born artist Bruce Nauman, one of the most influential artists working today. Curated in collaboration with the Bruce Nauman Studio, and based primarily on works from the Pinault Collection and the Philadelphia Museum of Art, as well as loans from Tate, The Museum of Modern Art ( New York ), Dia Art Foundation, and The Sonnabend Collection Foundation, Tai Kwun Contemporary's exhibition takes the form of a survey covering aspects of the artist's entire career, and is the first show of this kind to be presented in Hong Kong.
With elements drawn from Bruce Nauman: Contrapposto Studies, first shown at Punta Della Dogana, Venice, in 2021, the Tai Kwun Contemporary exhibition revisits fundamental elements ever-present in the artist's portfolio, from the artist's early neons to the recent Contrapposto series, along with drawings, large-scale sculptural and sound installations spanning more than six decades of the artist's practice. Curated by Carlos Basualdo, Marion Boulton "Kippy" Stroud Deputy Director and Chief Curator at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Caroline Bourgeois, Chief Curator at the Pinault Collection, and Pi Li, Head of Art at Tai Kwun, the exhibition will be on view from 15 May to 18 August 2024.
From the 1960s to the present day, Bruce Nauman ( b. Fort Wayne, Indiana, in 1941 ) has constantly been experimenting with various artistic languages — from photography to performance, sculpture to video — probing their potentialities and producing a body of work that questions the very definition of what constitutes artistic practice. This upcoming exhibition at Tai Kwun Contemporary highlights the experimental character of the artist's work by including a wide diversity of media, developed over six decades. A major new Chinese and English language publication featuring interviews "on/with" Bruce Nauman, edited by Joan Simon and Tai Kwun Contemporary, accompanies the exhibition.
Part of Tai Kwun Contemporary's series of major summer exhibitions spotlighting pioneering artists of our time.
