Franz West: Sisyphos Sculptures at Gagosian
June 17, 2018
Three sculptures in ACS member Franz West’s Sisyphos Series will be on show at Gagosian Gallery this June.

 

 

In this series, the artist sculpted papier-maché, Styrofoam and cardboard into amorphous masses that are painted in lacquer and acrylic. West named the work after the mythological king who was punished for his plotting and deception by Zeus, and the artist draws comparison between this myth and the relentless frustration of the creative process.

 

 

 

Until 27 July
Gagosian Gallery, 17-19 Davies Street, London W1K 3DE
