Ryan Gander: I see straight through you

For his first solo exhibition in New York in nearly ten years, British conceptual artist Ryan Gander presents a new body of work that considers the psychology of the body and questions the possibilities and limitations of figuration. A master storyteller, Gander’s complex yet playful practice is characterised by allusion, where focal points are teasingly hidden and meaning is subtly implied.  Stimulated by existential queries and investigations into what-ifs, each one of his artworks acts as a vessel to tell a new story, all collectively fitting into an overarching narrative where fictions and realities collide. Mirrors with no reflection, bodiless eyes, faceless men and a self-portrait in constant motion combine to reflect Gander’s interest in the dialectics of self-awareness and the barriers to understanding.
