At this year’s edition of Art Basel Miami Beach, White Cube presents works by artists including Georg Baselitz, Cerith Wyn Evans, Theaster Gates, Antony Gormley, Damien Hirst, Dora Maurer, Sarah Morris, Haim Steinbach and Kaari Upson.
Highlights include:
Teeth on a Pepsi Plinth (2017) by Los Angeles-based Kaari Upson, who recently joined White Cube. Like much of her work, this sculpture nods to personal memories – her mother's daily ritual of enjoying a can of Pepsi – whilst commenting on American culture.
Al Held’s B/W & Orange (1967), a previously unexhibited painting investigating spatial relationships through a multi-dimensional, interlocking composition. A pioneer of hard-edged abstraction, Held’s (1928−2005) first exhibition in Asia is currently view at White Cube Hong Kong.
Wir nehmen ein wenig Rosa (2018) by Georg Baselitz, whose early works are on show in a group exhibition at Deichtorhallen, Hamburg, until 5 January 2020.
Damien Hirst’s Dominion (2019), a painting from his recent ‘Mandalas’ series, which features iridescent and delicate butterfly wings laid onto a canvas and held in place by a richly coloured surface of gloss paint.
In the inaugural Meridians sector, dedicated to large-scale works, Theaster Gates’ Dance of Malaga (2019) is premiered for the first time in the US.
