Inside the exhibition
Previous & Ongoing — Lorna Simpson at Hauser & Wirth London in the United Kingdom presents a new body of work by the influential American artist. The exhibition explores the shifting nature of memory through a series of pieces that blend photography with painting and collage.
The display features found photographs integrated into canvases defined by cool, icy tones and layered textures. Simpson uses fragmented figures and archival imagery to build a narrative where identity feels transient, utilizing the physical properties of paint to obscure and reveal her subjects simultaneously.
Returning to the UK for the first time in nearly a decade, Simpson demonstrates how her practice has evolved to unify distinct media. The show highlights the internal dialogue within her recent work, where the same visual motifs migrate across different formats to challenge fixed perspectives.
Worth travelling for?
A focused, intellectually sharp presentation that serves as an excellent companion to the Cindy Sherman exhibition showing in the gallery's adjacent space.
