Sean Kelly is delighted to participate in Art Basel 2017, where we will present After Painting. Our carefully curated presentation conjoins two important historical works by Marcel Duchamp and Joseph Kosuth, which independently marked a sea change in the development of art and painting as a medium. In 1964 Duchamp reproduced his iconic 1919 work L.H.O.O.Q., which signified a symbolic, radical break with the past. Shortly thereafter Kosuth created his iconic Definition works, including ‘Titled (Art as Idea as Idea)’ [medium] - [Webster New Pract.], 1968, and declared painting to be dead. For Kosuth, it was Duchamp that initiated the shift in art from appearance to conception, writing that, “The function of art, as a question, was first raised by Marcel Duchamp. In fact, it is Marcel Duchamp whom we can credit with giving art its own identity.”
Ironically, decades later, painting continues to thrive through constant reinterpretation and reinvention. After Painting looks at the myriad ways in which artists continue to push the conceptual and aesthetic boundaries of the medium, keeping it vibrant and vital, and highlights work from the following artists: David Claerbout, Ilse D’Hollander, Jose Dávila, Laurent Grasso, Rebecca Horn, Callum Innes, Idris Khan, Joseph Kosuth, Hugo McCloud, Sam Moyer and James White.
