@gagosian Gagosian is pleased to announce “The Street,” an exhibition conceived and curated by the artist Peter Doig (
@peterdoig ), opening November 1 at 980 Madison Avenue, New York. For this collaboration with the gallery, Doig has assembled a personal selection of paintings by artists who have accompanied and informed his own artistic development.
Taking as its point of departure Balthus’s remarkable 1933 painting “The Street,” pictured here, generously loaned by the Museum of Modern Art in New York (
@themuseumofmodernart ), the exhibition will present scenes of urban life, labor, and architecture by artists including Francis Bacon, Max Beckmann, Vija Celmins, Prunella Clough, Giorgio de Chirico, Denzil Forrester, Mark Rothko, and Martin Wong, among others. The presentation will also include new work by Doig himself. Follow the link in our bio to read more.
