Atelier van Lieshout at the Carpenters Workshop Gallery

Wed, Mar 4 - Sat, Apr 25  2020

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly at the Carpenters Workshop Gallery New York, March 4 – April 25, 2020
Atelier Van Lieshout’s solo exhibition The Good, The Bad and The Ugly runs from March 4th until April 25th at Carpenters Workshop Gallery in New York. This exhibition is multidisciplinary and brings together various artforms, such as sculptures, video work, and functional artworks. The exhibition shows the variety of Joep Van Lieshout’s multidisciplinary practice and how the atelier highlights ethical and societal issues by presenting alternative solutions.

“A phrase drawn from Italian filmmaker Sergio Leone’s epic Western of the same name from 1966,
‘The Good, the Bad and the Ugly’ has become an apt lens through which to view Van Lieshout’s
thematic bodies of work. The title can be seen as a thread throughout Van Lieshout’s career—he
approaches complicated problems from multiple angles, highlighting ethical and societal issues
while presenting alternative solutions and, at the same time, emphasizing their adverse effect.
His work probes questions that ignite paradoxes and new perspectives, highlighting ethical or
practical issues.”

At the Carpenters Workshop Gallery New York, March 4 – April 25, 2020.
