Wael Shawky: The Gulf Project Camp

New York, 13 September – 16 October 2019

Wael Shawky: The Gulf Project Camp

For his first exhibition at Lisson Gallery New York, Egyptian artist Wael Shawky will transform the gallery into an immersive sculptural environment as part of his new work, The Gulf Project Camp. The space will feature a monumental crenelated wall installation that bisects the gallery and acts as a stage for a selection of fantastical new bronze sculptures. Alongside this, Shawky will present a series of large-scale wood relief works, highly intricate cast glass sculptures produced in Venice, and a suite of around 50 new ink and oil drawings. This exhibition will be the artist’s first in the city since his solo presentation at MoMA PS1 in 2015.
