Remembering Henry’s Show: Selected Works 1978-2008
Greenwich May 9th to January 1st, 2010
The inaugural exhibition, Remembering Henry’s Show: Selected Works 1978–2008, is a reference to an exhibition that the late Henry Geldzahler curated in 1969 at The Metropolitan Museum of Art titled New York Painting and Sculpture 1940–1970. This exhibition established The New York School as the successor to the school of Paris and influenced the direction in which the Brant Foundation’s collection was built. Remembering Henry’s Show: Selected Works 1978–2008 will present more than 25 artists including: Donald Baechler, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Maurizio Cattelan, Larry Clark, Francesco Clemente, John Currin, Urs Fischer, Keith Haring, Dennis Hopper, Mike Kelley, Karen Kilimnik, Jeff Koons, Paul McCarthy, Adam McEwen, Cady Noland, Raymond Pettibon, Elizabeth Peyton, Richard Prince, David Salle, Kenny Scharf, Julian Schnabel, Jim Shaw, Cindy Sherman, Piotr Uklanski, Andy Warhol, and, Christopher Wool. Major outdoor sculptures will be installed around the site including Jeff Koons’ Balloon Dog (1994–2000); Paul McCarthy’s Santa (2002); and, Richard Serra’s Ali-Frazier (2001). Visitors will also be able to view Jeff Koons’ Puppy, the artist’s 43-foot tall topiary sculpture, featuring over 80,000 fresh flowers, which is installed nearby.
“It has been enriching to our family to build our collection, foster our relationships with the artists that we collect in-depth, and to share the collection with others through loans to important international museum shows and private tours of our home. As the collection has grown to now include more than 100 artists, we believe it is part of our stewardship to exhibit and share as much of the collection as possible. With the inauguration of the Art Study Center, it is our aim to make the collection available for study and viewing to scholars, art historians, artists, other collectors, and those who share our passion for art and design.” – Peter Brant
The Brant Foundation Art Study Center is located in Greenwich, Connecticut, and is situated in an idyllic, pastoral field. Richard Gluckman of Gluckman Mayner Architects has created a 21st century intervention that transforms the original stone barn, built in 1902 as a cold storage facility for local orchards, into an art viewing space. An 88’ by 25’ skylight is carefully introduced over the wood trusses from an earlier renovation. Three galleries and a video viewing room, each with specific spatial characteristics, are inserted into the historic structure. A 1,750-square-foot double-height gallery features a presentation wall measuring 25’ 11” by 30′, ideal for showing monumental works. Also on the ground floor are a reception area, the video viewing room, and a single-story 2,300-square-foot gallery. These spaces are finished with new, white plaster walls and terrazzo-ground concrete floors, affording an optimal setting for the display of art. The 1,500-square-foot mezzanine gallery is held back from the existing walls, allowing light to penetrate deep into the building and making the intervention distinct from the original structure. The oak floor of this upper-level gallery extends into the library with wood floors and ceiling and an existing stone hearth, retaining some of the earlier details of the building. The center will feature furniture by 20th century designers, and will house a collection of books on art and design, which will be available to visitors for study. A new stone, grass and mahogany terrace wraps the building and integrates it into the landscape.

Artist Biography
Jean-Michel Basquiat
At the onset of the 1980s, Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960- 1988) took the art world by storm with his powerful and highly complex works, achieving a comprehensive oeuvre of over 1,000 paintings and more than 2,000 drawings in less than a decade. Radical in both his artistic practice and life, Basquiat made the streets of Lower Manhattan his studio, joining the creative outpour that was emerging in the late 1970s and 80s in New York City.
Jean-Michel Basquiat is represented in several prominent museum collections all over the world. Major solo exhibitions include “Jean-Michel Basquiat: Paintings 1981–1984,” Fruitmarket Gallery, Edinburgh (1984; traveled to the Institute of Contemporary Arts, London; and the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam, through 1985); Whitney Museum of American Art, New York (1992; traveled to the Menil Collection, Houston; the Des Moines Art Center, Iowa; and the Montgomery Museum of Fine Art, Alabama, through 1994); “Basquiat,” Brooklyn Museum of Art, New York (2005; traveled to the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, through 2006); Fondation Beyeler, Basel, Switzerland (2010; traveled to Musée d’art Moderne de la Ville de Paris); and “Basquiat: The Unknown Notebooks,” Brooklyn Museum, New York (2015). Basquiat starred in “Downtown 81,” a verité movie that was written by Glenn O’Brien, shot by Edo Bertoglio, and produced by Maripol in 1981, but not released until 2000.

Artist Biography
Larry Clark
Larry Clark was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1943. While a teenager Clark developed his photography skills working as an assistant to his mother, a door-to-door baby photographer. He later spent two years at a commercial photography school. Larry Clark achieved both fame and notoriety with the publication of his first book Tulsa in 1971. Shot sporadically between 1963 and 1971, the book graphically documented the hard drug underworld of Tulsa. Although drug use, sex and violence are the main themes, the images are often beautifully composed and his subjects are sympathetically presented. Tulsa, often compared to Robert Frank’s book, The Americans, demonstrated a new style of photography that was subjective, alienated and completely detached from any social agenda. Clark raised the ante for engaged photography; his work offered a lived experience rather than a merely observed one.
His subsequent photographic work explored themes of emerging masculinity by focusing on teenage boys that Clark felt were both “sexualized and demonized.” In his collages and videos of the late 1980s and early 1990s, he broadened this investigation into revealing the ways that mass media alternately creates, rejects, and eroticizes young people. Stills from his video pieces were shown in his first and second solo exhibitions at the Luhring Augustine gallery in New York in 1990 and 1992. In 1995, Clark released his first feature film, Kids, which premiered at that year’s Sundance Film Festival and was hailed as “an instant classic” and “a wake-up call.” Kids was followed by the films Another Day in Paradise (1998), Bully (2001), Teenage Caveman (2001), Ken Park (2003), WASSUP ROCKERS (2005), and the autobiographical installation and publication punk Picasso (2003). Marfa Girl (2012) was released independently on his website (www.larryclark.com) and won the Marcus Aurelius Award for Best Film at the 2012 Rome Film Festival. His newest film The Smell of Us, written and filmed in Paris, France, was released in 2014.
Clark has been the recipient of the National Endowment for the Arts’ Photographers’ Fellowship in 1973 and the Creative Arts Public Service Photographers’ Grant in 1980. He continues to exhibit his artwork worldwide and his work is included in the collections of numerous important museum and private collections including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; The Museum of Modern Art, NY; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, San Francisco; The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; the Houston Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; and the Frankfurt Museum für Moderne Kunst, Germany. A retrospective of Clark’s work, Kiss the past hello, was held at the Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris in the fall of 2010. He lives and works in New York.

Artist Biography
Francesco Clemente
Francesco Clemente is a contemporary artist who is known for exploring metaphysical questions of spirituality, mysticism, and the nature of the self. Often erotic, and at times violent in its subject matter, Clemente’s lyrical, emotional approach is expressed by his unique sense of color. Strongly influenced by literature and poetry, Clemente is a poet in his own right, with a vast lexicon of symbolic and metaphorical imagery that expands and transforms to tell an open-ended story.
Clemente’s personal history is essential to understand his role as a contemporary painter. Born in Naples in 1952, the aspiring artist, like many of his generation, became frustrated by the political and class system of 1970’s Italy. He belonged to the last generation to fight the notion that capitalism is inevitable. Coming into prominence in the Italian art scene at the time was Arte Povera, a movement that made statements against the institutional status quo and thought of painting as obsolete. Arte Povera favored conceptual process and the use of found objects and industrial materials.
Clemente was schooled by Arte Povera artists like Mario Merz and Jannis Kounnelis but became close to friend and mentor Alighiero Boetti in 1973. Together they travelled to Afghanistan where he observed and was inspired by Boetti’s mode of working with Afghani artisans and craftsmen. Clemente was drawn to the eastern way of life, and he soon sought creative refuge and spiritual realization in India, moving there with his wife, Alba, a well known theater actress whom he had met in Rome in 1974.
Clemente educated himself in the library of the Theosophical Society in Chennai, formerly Madras. There he studied Sanskrit and became acquainted with Hindu and Buddhist literature. He was fascinated with the local culture and craftsmanship, learning from and working together with Indian papermakers, miniature painters and sign painters. During this time, Clemente created hundreds of works on paper in various sizes, and established his practice of working in series. One such series included in the Brant Foundation exhibition is the Pondicherry Pastels, a group of 82 small works on paper depicting his inner and outer life in the Aurobindo Ashram. For another series, Passports, Clemente painted on a monumental scale, gluing together several pieces of handmade Pondicherry paper with handwoven Khadi cotton strips to create billboard-sized works with vibrant representations of subject matter inspired by eastern cosmologies, particularly Samkya enumerations of the five senses, the five elements, planets and functions of the body. He would fold and carry the enormous works by hand on his flights back from India.
In the early 80’s, Clemente was initially considered a part of the Transavanguardia movement in Italy and of Neo- Expressionism in New York. Artists like Julian Schnabel, Anselm Kiefer, Enzo Cucchi and Jean Michel Basquiat were known for a ‘return to figuration’, moving away from the minimalist and conceptual modes of work dominant at the time, in exchange for painting and expressive symbolic imagery.
Today Clemente is reluctant to be linked to any specific artistic movement, and though he credits his closeness to many artists for their contribution to his development, Clemente would rather see himself as a nomadic artist. He is fascinated by the continuous exchange between the East and West, particularly between America and India, an exchange which goes as far back as the 19th century when Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau read the Bhagavad Gita.
In 1981, Francesco Clemente travelled to New York from India for his exhibition at Sperone Westwater and Fisher Gallery. After witnessing the creative drive of the city, he soon relocated to New York with his wife and two daughters, and established a studio in a then deserted street in downtown Manhattan, where he works to this day.
New York City in the 1980’s proved to have a profound impact on Clemente’s artistic life. He collaborated with and befriended a wide range of dancers, poets and painters in the city’s thriving art and literary scene. He worked on a series of collaborative paintings with Andy Warhol and Jean- Michel Basquiat, and created illuminated manuscripts with poets Allen Ginsberg, Robert Creeley, John Weiners, and Rene Ricard. He had met the poets, idols of his teenage years, through Raymond Foye, with whom he later published the Hanuman Books. He began painting in oil on a large scale, and created a group of works titled Fourteen Stations, which was shown by Nick Serota at the Whitechapel Gallery in London in 1983. He continued to return to India on a regular basis, producing defining works such as the Red Book and the White Book, watercolors that celebrate the female power and the Black Book, a group of extreme erotic images inspired by the Temple Sculptures in Konarak.
In the spring of 1985, Clemente had three simultaneous gallery shows in New York at Sperone Westwater Gallery, Leo Castelli Gallery, and Mary Boone Gallery. Also that year, Michael Auping curated an exhibition of Francesco Clemente at the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art in Florida, which travelled to the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, the Dallas Museum of Art, the University Art Museum at UC Berkeley, the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, and ended with the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles in 1987. He also exhibited his work at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston in 1984, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1985, the Art Institute of Chicago in 1987, and Dia Art Foundation in 1988, among others. Clemente exhibited internationally at the National Galerie Berlin in 1984, which later traveled to Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam and other venues in Germany. In 1990, his exhibition Three Worlds opened at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, continuing to Wadsworth Atheneum, Hartford, Connecticut, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Royal Academy of Arts in in London in 1991.
Clemente chronicled the many fascinating personalities he met during this time through portraiture, achieving a unique and distinct style of rendering faces that he became well recognized for. The popularity of his portraits lead to Clemente’s participation in the film Great Expectations, directed by Alfonso Cuaron in 1998. The artist created more than one hundred works on paper and portraits on canvas of actors that were a critical element in the storyline.
The following year, Francesco had a major retrospective at the Guggenheim museum in New York curated by Lisa Dennison and Tom Krens, which travelled to Guggenheim Bilbao in 2000. Notable exhibitions in the 2000’s included the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin, at the Museo MADRE, Naples and the Schirn Kunsthalle, Frankfurt. An exhibition of self-portraits and Clemente’s watercolor version of the Tarot deck was held at the Uffizi Gallery, Florence in 2011. The Uffizi acquired and exhibits a self-portrait in the Vasari Corridor.
Clemente has worked in a wide range of mediums, including watercolor, pastel, oil, fresco, tempera, charcoal, sculpture, in a great variety of sizes and formats.
Clemente’s has returned to self-portraiture throughout his life. The artist has portrayed himself as an ageless presence, at times twisted in difficult and improbable positions, at other times sitting in peaceful and meditative ones. He states that the self-portraits are a meditation on the Buddhist notion of the self as ‘continuity of discontinuity’.
Clemente delights in depicting the grotesque as sublime, and the sublime as grotesque. The two values are interchangeable in his visual language. His graphic depictions of sexuality, violence, explicit male and female figures, and bodily functions are executed vividly, without judgment, and in a spirit of celebration. These depictions are intended to witness the essential harmony and the transcendent nature of reality. Clemente claims that to the eye of a painter, the world is perfect.
Clemente’s most recent work includes a series of oil on canvas paintings featuring broken hearts and white flags, a series of black flags against a blue sky (painted on the eve of the last presidential election), a series of enormous murals made in Beijing, and an elegiac group of paintings inspired by the poetry of Federico Garcia Lorca in New York. He continues to collaborate with Indian miniature painters every year, creating sets of intricate and exquisite watercolors.
In 2015, Clemente exhibited a group of six painted and embroidered tents, along with watercolors and sculpture, at Mass MoCA. The tents, 12 feet by 18 feet, were fabricated in India with local tentmakers, and the inside walls and ceilings were painted by Clemente. Each tent is an inhabitable painting, which may be entered and experienced in the way of a contemporary chapel. The exhibition later went to Carriageworks, Sydney, Australia, and the tents have been shown separately in Berlin and New York.
Francesco Clemente’s exhibition at the Brant Foundation is a concise but exhaustive retrospective that will feature his work from 1978 until 2018, marking 40 years of the artist’s life. The show is non- chronological, weaving together threads that have been a constant in Clemente’s long-spanning oeuvre, and presenting ideas and questions that persist for the artist throughout various transformations in medium. The exhibition includes self-portraits, portraits, multiple series of work on paper in watercolor and pastel, frescoes, several monumental oil paintings, and one tent. Executed in Rome, Varanasi, Jodhpur, Orissa, Pondicherry, Madras, New York, and Taos over the last four decades, the works have travelled far and been dispersed among museum collections and art patrons who have been a part of Clemente’s history. They now return for Francesco Clemente: 1978- 2018, each work with its own story to tell.

Artist Biography
Keith Haring
Keith Haring (1958-90) was one of the most renowned of the young artists, filmmakers, performers and musicians whose work responded to urban street culture of the 1980s. Inspired by the graffiti artists whose marks covered the city’s subway cars, Haring began to draw in white chalk over the black paper used to cover vacant advertising panels. Not only was he was able to reach a large and diverse audience with his subway drawings, but, eventually, the subway became, as Haring said, a “laboratory” for working out his ideas. As early as 1980, Haring began exhibiting in galleries and museums around the world, but continued to participate in public projects, including literacy campaigns and anti-AIDS initiatives.
Keith Haring generously contributed his talents and resources to numerous causes. He conducted art workshops with children, created logos and posters for public service agencies, and produced murals, sculptures, and paintings to benefit health centers and disadvantaged communities. In 1989, Keith established a foundation to ensure that his philanthropic legacy would continue indefinitely. The mission of the Keith Haring Foundation is to sustain, expand, and protect the legacy of Keith Haring, his art, and his ideals. The Foundation supports not-for-profit organizations that assist children, as well as organizations involved in education, research and care related to AIDS.
Keith Haring died in New York in February 1990 of AIDS, at the age of 31. Please visit haring.com for additional information.

Artist Biography
Mike Kelley
Mike Kelley, 1954-2012
Mike Kelley was born in Detroit, Michigan in 1954. He graduated from the University of Michigan in 1976. Kelley’s immense oeuvre is known to be extremely diverse in topic and medium. His work includes performances, installations, drawings, and sculptures (made of multiple materials and non-art objects, including stuffed animals). Kelley’s constant oscillation between the subtle or uncanny and extremely blunt, comes across to the viewer in a myriad of forms that feels both sculptural and alive. Kelley came out of a generation that consistently obscured the traditional boundaries between ‘high’ and ‘low’ art, an artistic endeavor that questioned the societal and cultural values to which art is normally contrived. As a result, his works demonstrate an objection of traditional attitudes towards topics such as religion, sexuality, gender, education and even art history. In addition, Kelley’s work has also been inspired by vernacular American art and music. It is this constant challenge and variety of influences that makes Kelley’s works so intriguing, powerful, and visionary.
Mike Kelley has exhibited extensively throughout the United States and Europe.

Artist Biography
Karen Kilimnik
Karen Kilimnik was born in 1955 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Kilimnik currently lives and works in Philadelphia.
Drawing correspondences between romantic tradition and consumer culture, Karen Kilimnik’s work brings a haunting and contrary sense of beauty to contemporary art. The world of the ballet and childhood, romantic painting and pop music, icons of film and fashion, signs of witchcraft, time-travel, and murder comprise an imagery that has been culled from the historic and recent past into an unsettling present. In a world where the forces of nature, youth, and terror have taken awesome hold, Kilimnik’s art rematerializes a quest for the romantic sublime.
Karen Kilimnik graduated from Temple University in Philadelphia in 1984.

Artist Biography
Adam McEwen
With an approach both humorous and somber, McEwen’s work inhabits the murky territory that lies between history and fiction. Born in 1965 in Great Britain, McEwen studied at Christ Church, Oxford and the California Institute of the Arts, Valencia, CA. Drawing from his experience writing obituaries for the Daily Telegraph in London, McEwen began creating obituaries of living icons such as Bill Clinton and supermodel Kate Moss, launching a practice addressing the subjects of celebrity driven media and consumer culture. Whether turning text messages into haiku-like riddles, using wads of chewing gum on canvas to reference German cities bombed during World War II, or creating precisely machined graphite sculptures of banal objects such as a water cooler or an air conditioner, McEwen’s work specializes in manipulating the over-familiar in order to create a moment of linguistic destabilization.

Artist Biography
Cady Noland
Born in 1956 in Washington D.C., Cady Noland is the daughter of painter Kenneth Noland. After earning her BA from Sarah Lawrence College in Bronxville, Noland resided in Manhattan where she currently lives.
Cady Noland’s work addresses American mythologies, it examines the inextricable construction of American history and identity that is intertwined with consumer culture and mass media. Her anti-art and scattered pieces recall the aesthetic strategies seen in Pop Art, Minimalism and Post-Minimalism. Noland’s images, taken from tabloids, newspapers, and stock-photo sources, are combined with various objects that focus on those moments when a disastrous event becomes a compelling spectacle, when private space is rendered public, when counterculture collides with the mainstream, and when people or objects are transformed into media, thus probing the malaise of American culture. Her In the late 1980s Noland began a series of sculptures and installations investigating the masculine underpinnings of the American dream, represented by men’s beer consumption. Her Crate of Beer (1989) is a wire-mesh basket full of empty Budweiser cans. In her 1989 Untitled installation at the Mattress Factory in Pittsburgh, Noland stacked six-packs of Budweiser atop one another. Metal scaffolding transformed these mountains of alcohol into a construction site. For the artist, Bud cans are as potent an American symbol as the nation’s flag, both being red, white, and blue. Which she also populates Noland’s work. In The American Trip(1988), Cheap and Fast (1989), and related works, the flag is draped or hung, limp or pierced.
Noland’s work was exhibited in the Whitney Biennial in 1991 and Documenta 9 in Kassel, Germany. She has had several solo exhibitions at Paula Cooper Gallery in New York (1994), Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam (1995), and Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford, Connecticut (1996).

Artist Biography
Raymond Pettibon
Raymond Pettibon’s work embraces a wide spectrum of American “high” and “low” culture, from the deviations of marginal youth to art history, literature, sports, religion, politics, and sexuality. Taking their points of departure in the Southern California punk-rock culture of the late 1970s and 1980s and the “do-it-yourself” aesthetic of album covers, comics, concert flyers, and fanzines that characterized the movement, his drawings have come to occupy their own genre of potent and dynamic artistic commentary.
Born in 1957 in Tucson, Arizona, Pettibon graduated with a degree in economics from the University of California, Los Angeles in 1977. He joined David Zwirner in 1995. In 2016, the gallery held two exhibitions in New York and London dedicated to the collaborative works by Pettibon and Marcel Dzama. On view February 25 through April 15, 2017, TH ‘EXPLOSIYV SHOYRT T will mark the artist’s tenth solo exhibition at David Zwirner, New York.
Currently on view at the Museum der Moderne Salzburg is Homo Americanus, a major museum survey of Pettibon’s work, encompassing over six hundred works from every part of the artist’s career, the majority of which have never been shown before (through February 12, 2017). The show was first presented at Deichtorhallen Hamburg – Sammlung Falckenberg in Hamburg in 2016. Accompanying the exhibition is a large-scale, comprehensive publication by David Zwirner Books, created in close collaboration with Pettibon.
In February 2017, the New Museum will present A Pen of All Work, a major solo exhibition of Pettibon’s work featuring over seven hundred drawings from the 1960s to the present, marking the artist’s first museum survey in New York and the largest presentation of his work to date. The show will travel to the Bonnefantenmuseum Maastricht, The Netherlands.
Pettibon’s work has been exhibited widely throughout the United States and abroad. In 2013, he reworked a drawing from 2010 that was featured as the tenth installation of the High Line Billboard, located at 18th Street and 10th Avenue in New York. Prominent venues which have held recent solo exhibitions of the artist’s work include the Kumu Kunstimuuseum, Tallinn, Estonia (2015); Kunstmuseum Luzern, Lucerne, Switzerland (2012); Kestnergesellschaft, Hanover (2007); Kunsthalle Wien, Vienna; Centro de Arte Contemporáneo de Málaga, Spain (both 2006); Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, La Jolla, California; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York (both 2005). In 1998, he had his first American museum presentation, organized by The Renaissance Society at the University of Chicago in collaboration with the Philadelphia Museum of Art, which traveled to The Drawing Center, New York and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles.
He has participated in a number of group exhibitions worldwide, including the Istanbul Biennial (2011); Liverpool Biennial (2010); SITE Santa Fe, New Mexico (2010 and 2004); Venice Biennale (2007 and 1999); Whitney Biennial, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York (2004, 1997, 1993, and 1991); and documenta XI, Kassel, Germany (2002).
Museum collections which hold works by the artist include the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; Hamburger Bahnhof – Museum für Gegenwart, Berlin; The Israel Museum, Jerusalem; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Tate Gallery, London; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; among others. Pettibon lives and works in New York.

Artist Biography
Richard Prince
Richard Prince was born in 1949 in the Panama Canal Zone.
Richard Prince first gained critical attention in the early 1980s when his photographs of magazine advertisements redefined the autonomies of authorship and ownership and the very nature of representation.
His work has been the subject of major survey exhibitions, including the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York (1992); San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (1993); Museum Boijmans van Beuningen, Rotterdam (1993); Museum für Gegenwartskunst, Basel (2001, traveled to Kunsthalle Zurich and Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg); Serpentine Gallery, London (2008). The retrospective survey “Richard Prince: Spiritual America” opened at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in 2007 and traveled to The Walker Art Center, Minneapolis in 2008. Serpentine Gallery, London 2008. “Richard Prince: American Prayer,” Bibliothèque nationale de France, Paris, 2011. Prince/Picasso Picasso Museum, Malaga, Spain 2012. “It’s a Free Concert”, Kunsthaus-Bregenz, Bregenz, Austria 2014

Artist Biography
David Salle
In 1970, David Salle entered the California Institute of the Arts as part of its “foundational class”, where he studied with John Baldessari. (BFA 1973, MFA 1975). He was an early member of the “Pictures Generation,” whose work was revisited in an exhibition of the same title at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, in 2009. Salle’s work can be found in the collections of many international museums, such as the Centre Georges Pompidou, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, the Stedelijk Museum, the Tate, the Walker Art Center, the Guggenheim Museum, and the Whitney Museum of American Art, the latter of which in 1987, honored Salle, at age 34, with the youngest mid-career survey ever. Salle is also a prolific writer on art. “How to See,” a volume of his collected essays was published by W.W. Norton in 2016. His essays and reviews have been published in Artforum, T: The New York Times Style Magazine, Art in America, and The Paris Review. Salle was for some years the art critic for Town & Country, and is now a regular contributor to The New York Review of Books.

Artist Biography
Kenny Scharf
Kenny Scharf was born 1958 in Los Angeles, California.
Scharf received a BFA from attended the School of Visual Arts , New York, in 1980. His work has appeared in the Aperto at the Venice Biennale (1984) and the Whitney Biennial (1985), as well as many solo and museum exhibitions. Kenny Scharf lives and works in New York, NY and Los Angeles, CA.
“My ambition as a professional artist is to maintain the course that I set 30 years ago by establishing my work in the fields of painting, sculpture, and performance. Every project I undertake is building on my past experiences. My original approach is unchanged; it is a personal challenge to produce the best work possible every time. One very important and guiding principle to my work is to reach out beyond the elitist boundaries of fine art and connect to popular culture through my art. My personal ambition has always been to live the example.”

Artist Biography
Julian Schnabel
Julian Schnabel was born in New York City in 1951. In 1965 he moved with his family to Brownsville, Texas. He attended the University of Houston from 1969-73, receiving a BFA, and returned to New York to participate in the Whitney Museum Independent Study Program.
In 1978 Schnabel travelled throughout Europe and in Barcelona was particularly moved by the architecture of Antoni Gaudí. That same year he made his first plate painting, The Patients and the Doctors. His first solo painting exhibition took place at the Mary Boone Gallery in New York City in February 1979.
Schnabel’s work has been exhibited all over the world. His paintings, sculptures, and works on paper have been the subject of numerous exhibitions: The Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, 1982; Tate Gallery, London, 1982; Whitechapel Gallery, London, 1987; Kunsthalle Düsseldorf, Düsseldorf, 1987; Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, 1987; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, 1987; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, San Francisco, 1987; Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, 1987; Musée d’Art Contemporain, Nîmes, 1989; Staatliche Graphische Sammlung, Munich, 1989; Palais des Beaux-Arts, Brussels, 1989; Fruitmarket Gallery, Edinburgh, 1989; Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, 1989; Museo de Arte Contemporáneo, Monterrey, 1994; Fundació Joan Miró, Barcelona, 1995; Galleria d’Arte Moderna di Bologna, Bologna, 1996; Schirn Kunsthalle, Frankfurt/Main, 2004; Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid, 2004; Rotonda della Besana, Milan, 2007; Tabakalera, Donostia-San Sebastián, 2007; Museo di Capodimonte, Naples, 2009; The Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto, 2010; Museo Correr, Piazza San Marco, Venice, 2011; J.F.

In 1996 Schnabel wrote and directed the feature film Basquiat about fellow New York artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. The film was in the official selection of the 1996 Venice Film Festival. Schnabel’s second film, Before Night Falls, based on the life of the late exiled Cuban novelist Reinaldo Arenas, won both the Grand Jury Prize and the Coppa Volpi for best actor, Javier Bardem, at the 2000 Venice Film Festival. In 2007 Schnabel directed his third film, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. Schnabel received the award for Best Director at the Cannes Film Festival as well as Best Director at the Golden Globe Awards, where the film won Best Film in a Foreign Language. The Diving Bell and the Butterfly was nominated for four Oscars. That same year, 2007, he made a film of Lou Reed’s Berlin concert at St. Ann’s Warehouse in Brooklyn. His most recent film, Miral, won the UNESCO as well as the UNICEF award at the 2010 Venice Film Festival. Miral was shown at the General Assembly Hall of the United Nations.
His work is included in the public collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Guggenheim Museum, New York and Bilbao; Tate Gallery, London; Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum, Tokyo; Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid; National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C.; National Gallery of Australia, Canberra; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, San Francisco; Hamburger Bahnhof, Berlin; Kunstmuseum, Basel; Fondation Musée d’Art Moderne, Luxembourg; and Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris.

Artist Biography
Jim Shaw
Jim Shaw was born in Michigan in 1952 and attended the California Institute of the Arts in the late 1970s with artists that include Mike Kelley, John Miller and Tony Oursler. The group became known for their reaction against the material restrictions adhered to by the conceptual artists of the 70s, many of whom were their teachers at CalArts. One of the most influential artists of his generation, Shaw has spent his career researching, collecting and reconstituting the visual language of eccentric aspects of American history and subcultures to develop an uncanny symbology of his own invention. In 2015, two critically-acclaimed exhibitions of Shaw’s work opened at the New Museum and the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (MASS MoCA) respectively.
Shaw participated in the 55th Venice Biennale in 2013. Past one-person exhibitions include Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art, Gateshead, UK; Museum Boijmans van Beuningen, Rotterdam; CAPC, Musee de’Art Contemporain de Bordeaux; MoMA PS1, New York; Magasin, Centre National d’Art Contemporain, Grenoble; Institute of Contemporary Arts, London; and Musee d’Art Moderne et Contemporain, Geneva. His work has been in group shows at Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; Los Angeles County Museum; New Museum, New York; Museum of Modern Art, New York; Centre Pompidou, Paris; and Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles.

Artist Biography
Cindy Sherman
Born in 1954 in Glen Ridge, New Jersey, Cindy Sherman is counted among the most important artists of the last half-century. Upon graduating from the State University of New York at Buffalo in 1976, Sherman moved to New York City where she began making the seminal Untitled Film Stills. She has gone on to photograph and cast herself in various roles through her masterful use of make-up, costume, setting and pose. A retrospective of Sherman’s work was organized by the Museum of Modern Art, New York in 2012 and accompanied by a comprehensive catalogue. The exhibition traveled to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis and the Dallas Museum of Art. At the same time, Hatje Cantz, in cooperation with the Sammlung Verbund Vienna, published a comprehensive catalogue raisonné of formative early works produced by Sherman between 1975 and 1977. Sherman had major exhibitions from 2013 to 2015 at Me Collectors Room Berlin, Stiftung Olbricht; Sammlung Goetz, Munich; Moderna Museet, Stockholm; Astrup Fearnley Museum, Oslo and Kunsthaus Zürich. In 2016 Sherman opens one-person exhibitions at the Queensland Gallery of Modern Art, Brisbane and the Broad Museum in Los Angeles.
Sherman has participated in four Venice Biennales and in 2013 co-curated a section of the biennale with Massimilano Gioni.

Artist Biography
Andy Warhol
More than twenty years after his death, Andy Warhol remains one of the most influential figures in contemporary art and culture. Warhol’s life and work inspires creative thinkers worldwide thanks to his enduring imagery, his artfully cultivated celebrity, and the ongoing research of dedicated scholars. His impact as an artist is far deeper and greater than his one prescient observation that “everyone will be world famous for fifteen minutes.” His omnivorous curiosity resulted in an enormous body of work that spanned every available medium and most importantly contributed to the collapse of boundaries between high and low culture.
A skilled (analog) social networker, Warhol parlayed his fame, one connection at a time, to the status of a globally recognized brand. Decades before widespread reliance on portable media devices, he documented his daily activities and interactions on his traveling audio tape recorder and beloved Minox 35EL camera. Predating the hyper-personal outlets now provided online, Warhol captured life’s every minute detail in all its messy, ordinary glamour and broadcast it through his work, to a wide and receptive audience.

The youngest child of three, Andy was born Andrew Warhola on August 6, 1928 in the working-class neighborhood of Oakland, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Stricken at an early age with a rare neurological disorder, the young Andy Warhol found solace and escape in the form of popular celebrity magazines and DC comic books, imagery he would return to years later. Predating the multiple silver wigs and deadpan demeanor of later years, Andy experimented with inventing personae during his college years. He signed greeting cards “André”, and ultimately dropped the “a” from his last name, shortly after moving to New York and following his graduation with a degree in Pictorial Design from the Carnegie Institute of Technology (now Carnegie Mellon University) in 1949.
Work came quickly to Warhol in New York, a city he made his home and studio for the rest of his life. Within a year of arriving, Warhol garnered top assignments as a commercial artist for a variety of clients including Columbia Records, Glamour magazine, Harper’s Bazaar, NBC, Tiffany & Co., Vogue, and others. He also designed fetching window displays for Bonwit Teller and I. Miller department stores. After establishing himself as an acclaimed graphic artist, Warhol turned to painting and drawing in the 1950s, and in 1952 he had his first solo exhibition at the Hugo Gallery, with Fifteen Drawings Based on the Writings of Truman Capote. As he matured, his paintings incorporated photo-based techniques he developed as a commercial illustrator. The Museum of Modern Art (among others) took notice, and in 1956 the institution included his work in his first group show.
The turbulent 1960s ignited an impressive and wildly prolific time in Warhol’s life. It is this period, extending into the early 1970s, which saw the production of many of Warhol’s most iconic works. Building on the emerging movement of Pop Art, wherein artists used everyday consumer objects as subjects, Warhol started painting readily found, mass-produced objects, drawing on his extensive advertising background. When asked about the impulse to paint Campbell’s soup cans, Warhol replied, “I wanted to paint nothing. I was looking for something that was the essence of nothing, and that was it”. The humble soup cans would soon take their place among the Marilyn Monroes, Dollar Signs,Disasters, and Coca Cola Bottles as essential, exemplary works of contemporary art.
Operating out of a silver-painted and foil-draped studio nicknamed The Factory, located at 231 East 47th Street, (his second studio space to hold that title), Warhol embraced work in film and video. He made his first films with a newly purchased Bolex camera in 1963 and began experimenting with video as early as 1965. Now considered avant-garde cinema classics, Warhol’s early films include Sleep (1963), Blow Job (1964), Empire (1963), and Kiss (1963-64). With sold out screenings in New York, Los Angeles, and Cannes, the split-screen, pseudo documentary Chelsea Girls (1966) brought new attention to Warhol from the film world. Art critic David Bourdon wrote, “word around town was underground cinema had finally found its Sound of Music in Chelsea Girls.” Warhol would make nearly 600 films and nearly 2500 videos. Among these are the 500, 4-minute films that comprise Warhol’s Screen Tests, which feature unflinching portraits of friends, associates and visitors to the Factory, all deemed by Warhol to be in possession of “star quality”.
Despite a brief self-declared retirement from painting following an exhibition of Flowers in Paris, Warhol continued to make sculptures (including the well known screenprinted boxes with the logos of Brillo and Heinz Ketchup) prints, and films. During this time he also expanded his interests into the realm of performance and music, producing the traveling multi-media spectacle, The Exploding Plastic Inevitable, with the Velvet Underground and Nico,
In 1968 Warhol suffered a nearly fatal gun-shot wound from aspiring playwright and radical feminist author, Valerie Solanas. The shooting, which occurred in the entrance of the Factory, forever changed Warhol. Some point to the shock of this event as a factor in his further embrace of an increasingly distant persona. The brush with death along with mounting pressure from the Internal Revenue Service (stemming from his critical stance against President Richard Nixon), seem to have prompted Warhol to document his life to an ever more obsessive degree. He would dictate every activity, including noting the most minor expenses, and employ interns and assistants to transcribe the content of what would amount to over 3,400 audio tapes. Portions of these accounts were published posthumously in 1987 asThe Warhol Diaries.
The traumatic attempt on his life did not, however, slow down his output or his cunning ability to seamlessly infiltrate the worlds of fashion, music, media, and celebrity. His artistic practice soon intersected with all aspects of popular culture, in some cases long before it would become truly popular. He co-founded Interview Magazine; appeared on television in a memorable episode of The Love Boat; painted an early computer portrait of singer Debbie Harry; designed Grammy-winning record covers for The Rolling Stones; signed with a modeling agency; contributed short films to Saturday Night Live; and produced Andy Warhol’s Fifteen Minutes and Andy Warhol’s TV, his own television programs for MTV and cable access. He also developed a strong business in commissioned portraits, becoming highly sought after for his brilliantly-colored paintings of politicians, entertainers, sports figures, writers, debutantes and heads of state. His paintings, prints, photographs and drawings of this time include the important series, Skulls, Guns, Camouflage, Mao, and The Last Supper.
While in Milan, attending the opening of the exhibition of The Last Supper paintings, Warhol complained of severe pain in his right side. After delaying a hospital visit, he was eventually convinced by his doctors to check into New York Hospital for gall bladder surgery. On February 22, 1987, while in recovery from this routine operation, Andy Warhol died. Following burial in Pittsburgh, thousands of mourners paid their respects at a memorial service held at Manhattan’s St. Patrick’s Cathedral. The service was attended by numerous associates and admirers including artists Roy Lichtenstein, Keith Haring, and entertainer Liza Minnelli. Readings were contributed by Yoko Ono and Factory collaborator and close friend, Brigid Berlin.
Plans to house The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh were announced in 1989, two years after the establishment of the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. Through the ongoing efforts of both of these institutions, Andy Warhol remains not only a fascinating cultural icon, but an inspiration to new generations of artists, curators, filmmakers, designers, and cultural innovators the world over.

Art lives and breathes like a human being. Perhaps it really is the human mirror.
– Urs Fischer, An essay commissioned for the exhibition: "Remembering Henry's Show" @ The Brant Foundation Art Study Center, Greenwich, CT, 2009
Two artists, Mr. Koons and Andy Warhol, united thematically by a love of kitsch, dominate the large downstairs gallery. The pairing celebrates variety and individuality yet also marks the importance of the threads that link the two artists. This is my favorite room, for here you get to see organizational intelligence at work.
– Benjamin Genocchio, The New York Times Art Review, 2009
It was a moment in time...Everyone in that room was a friend in one way or another. It’s a slice of America in the 80s. Peter’s not about having trophies like so many collectors. The guy really cares about the artists.
– Donald Baechler, Wall Street Journal Magazine, May 12, 2009
