As a follow up to our most recent exhibition Lucy Skaer: Stacks and Ledgers, Peter Freeman, Inc., New York is pleased to present the gallery’s inaugural exhibition with Nashashibi/Skaer. This will be their first exhibition in New York since 2010.
Rosalind Nashashibi and Lucy Skaer have worked collaboratively under the moniker Nashashibi/Skaer since 2005. Often taking existing artworks as the starting point, their films reflect on how images are subject to transformation. This exhibition will include four films ranging in date from 2008 to 2021: Pygmalion Event (2008); Our Magnolia (2009); Lamb (2019); and Bear (2021). Two film posters and photographs of adapted book pages will also be on view.
Please join us at 140 Grand Street on Saturday, 31 January, from 4–7pm for a reception with Rosalind Nashashibi and Lucy Skaer. The artists will be in conversation beginning at 5pm.
Recent Nashashibi/Skaer exhibitions include those at Cooper Gallery, Dundee, Scotland (2022); S.M.A.K., Ghent (2019); Tate St. Ives, Cornwall, England (2018, 2016); and Tate Britain, London (2008), as well as group exhibitions at Boghossion Foundation, Brussels (2022); FRAC Île-de-France - Le Plateau, Paris (2019, 2017); KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin (2017); documenta 14, Athens, Greece and Kassel, Germany (2017); and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (2012). Nashashibi/Skaer’s work is represented in numerous public collections, including the Centre Pompidou, Paris; Kunsthaus Zürich, Switzerland; The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; and Tate Britain, London.
