Robin Rhode & Nari Wardn at Chelsea gallery Lehmann Maupin
Chelseagallery Lehmann Maupin thematizes the absence of walls with a show dedicated to
Nari Ward and Robin Rhodes, two artists known for their textural and
metaphorical investigations of concrete surfaces. After the gallery unveiled
Power Wall at its Hong Kong space on April 3, it inaugurated its online viewing
room with the digital adaptation, exhibiting the artists’ approaches to walls
as “contentious spaces and sites of control division, and support,” according
to gallery cofounder David Maupin. Harlem-based Ward is known for his grasping
installations, for which he directly applies numerous shoelaces onto walls to
orchestrate impactful texts or images on perseverance; for Berlin-based South
African artist Rhodes, walls resonate with opposing aspects of urbanism and
provide canvases for his abstract drawings and performative photo series.
