Chloe Wise: Second Nature
Publisher: Almine Rech
Publication Date: 2021
Binding: Hardcover
Condition: New
Edition: 1st
Hardcover, 432 pgs. Sealed, new. Texts by Kristen Cochrane, José Carlos Diaz, Francesca Gavin, Loreta Lamargese; Interview with Alice Pfeiffer. Velvet hardcover published without a dustjacket in an edition of 2500. 432 pages in length and measuring 28 x 22 cm - 11 1/8 x 8 5/8 inches. What is the midpoint between the ordinary and the excessive? Chloe Wise’s artwork may inhabit this space. Her paintings, sculptures and film works are beautifully over the top. In her canvases filled with figures, or sculptures overwhelmed with drips and reflection, we witness an overflow of desire. Yet, at the same time, something absurd emerges in the banal. An everyday commodity slipping into a dramatic, super-sized group portrait. Beneath it all, Wise is exploring contemporary consumption, desire and politics.
