Gagosian presents “Not Abstract II,” an exhibition of recent photographs by the renowned German artist Andreas Gursky. The exhibition is on view till December 23, 2016.The exhibition features images of nature to cities, crowds, and products; Gursky seems to create what already exists. In his photographs variations in distance serve to emphasize contemporary truths, whereby subject matter is presented in a detailed uniformity that privileges neither foreground nor background.Along with the artworks by Andreas Gursky, the show is accompanied by an electronic sound installation created by Canadian DJ and producer Richie Hawtin.Both Gursky and Hawtin use digital technology—in image and sound respectively—to recombine the materials of everyday existence. Their collaboration brings all of the senses together, positioning politics, capitalism, and geography within a hypnotic realm that fluctuates between abstraction and reality.The exhibition is on view at Gagosian Gallery, 522 West 21st Street, New York, NY 10011For details, visit: http://www.gagosian.com/Click on the slideshow for a sneak peek of the exhibition.
