Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This image depicts a group of men dressed in formal attire, standing together against a deep red curtain backdrop. The overall composition is symmetrical, with the individuals arranged in a row, creating a sense of uniformity and cohesion. The monochromatic color scheme, predominantly in shades of black and brown, contributes to the serious and somber tone of the artwork. The subjects appear to be part of a musical ensemble or performing arts group, with their formal attire and collective posture suggesting a professional and refined artistic sensibility. The historical context or the artist's intention behind this piece could be related to the representation of a renowned musical or theatrical group, perhaps aiming to convey a sense of tradition, discipline, and artistic excellence. ...

Artist

Candice Breitz

B.1972, South African

Throughout her career, Candice Breitz has explored the dynamics by means of which an individual becomes him or herself in relation to a larger community, be that the immediate community that one encounters in family, or the real and imagined communities that are shaped not only by questions of national belonging, race, gender and religion, but also by the increasingly undeniable influence of mainstream media such as television, cinema and other popular culture. Most recently, Breitz’s work has focused on the conditions under which empathy is produced, reflecting on a media-saturated global culture in which strong identification with fictional characters and celebrity figures runs parallel to widespread indifference to the plight of those facing real world adversity. Her main media is the video: from single channel to 30-channels video installations, involving the whole exhibition space. ...

Gallery

Kaufmann Repetto

Milan, New York City

francesca kaufmann gallery opened in January 2000. Since then, the gallery has aimed to explore a diverse range of media, with a focus on video, site specific installation, and a special attention towards the works of female artists. After ten years in its historical location, the gallery opened in a new space in October 2010, under the name kaufmann repetto, to mark the partnership between Francesca Kaufmann and Chiara Repetto. In its new location, the gallery has been able to further develop its exhibition programming through a project space dedicated predominantly to younger artists, as well as a courtyard for large scale outdoor installations, which run parallel to the gallery’s main exhibition schedule. In 2013, the gallery inaugurated a new location in Chelsea, New York, with a parallel program to the gallery’s main space in Milan. In 2019 the New York location moved to Tribeca, expanding to a 3,000 sq ft exhibition space. The inaugural exhibition at the gallery’s new space in Tribeca was a solo show by Lily van der Stokker. ...
