PAT STEIR
For decades, Pat Steir (born 1940 in Newark, NJ, USA) has been an impor-
tant fixture in the New York art scene. With her specific concept-oriented
approach Steir can be seen in the tradition of abstract painting à la Jackson
Pollock, a heritage which she combines with her expertise in Chinese
painting traditions. Her famous Waterfalls, which the artist developed in
the late 1980s, have been interpreted as an homage to Pollock reinventing
the drip as a means for the paint to paint a picture of itself.
Since around 2000 Steir has developed an ever more subtle method us-
ing the process of dripping to create a delicate interwoven curtain-like sur-
face texture which has been the basis for many paintings of the years to come.
At the beginning of the year, the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia
unveiled Steir’s “Silent Secret Waterfalls: The Barnes Series,” a monu-
mental commission, consisting of 11 new paintings that will be on view
in the entrance court of the museum until November 2019. And from
October, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington,
D.C. will present the artist’s largest site-specific commission to date: 28
new paintings spanning the entire perimeter of the museum’s second-floor
inner-circle galleries.

IDRIS KHAN
Idris Khan (born 1978 in Birmingham, UK), who was recently commis-
sioned to create the British Museum’s first site specific artwork, has devel-
oped a unique narrative, drawing on diverse cultural sources including art,
literature, philosophy, and music. His densely-layered imagery inhabits
the space between abstraction and figuration encompassing aspects of
history, cumulative experience, and the metaphysical collapse of time
into a single moment.

ROBERT MAPPLETHORPE
On view at the booth will be a selection of works by star photographer
Robert Mapplethorpe (born 1946 in New York City; died 1989 in Boston,
MA, USA) whose sustained legacy in 2019 is celebrated at the Solomon
Guggenheim Museum in New York with a yearlong exhibition of the ar-
tist’s early Polaroids and collages to his iconic, classicizing photographs
of male and female nudes, flowers, and statuary, portraits of celebrities,
and his more explicit depictions of the S&M underground.

JONAS WEICHSEL
Jonas Weichsel (born 1982 in Darmstadt, Germany) creates minimalist
paintings of uncanny precision and impalpability, which upon closer in-
spection translate into sensuous, lived experiences. Early on, Weichsel
developed his unique analytical and systematic painting technique, which
he continues to pursue often combining digital and plotting techniques
with hand-painted elements to explore the possibilities and limits of paint-
ing and the boundaries between immateriality and a tangible, material
presence. His paintings inherit a deceptive simplicity and unfold their full
power only in the contemplation of the original.
Since 2015, the artist has been working on a series of paintings, the
titles of which mirror the stylized, complex, technical process involved
in their creation. Aesthetically, the different series make use of the same
principles; with their structural complexity and exact and calculated ex-
ecution, they can also be seen as in the tradition of both Op Art and Con-
crete Painting. Each series, Sc (= Single color), Tc (= Two color) or Fc (=
Five color), is the results of different, but similarly complex processes,
which differentiate them.
