Studio Adrien Gardère

To locate the radical implications of Warhol’s Shadows, one must begin with the work’s form: this Shadows series was conceived as one painting in multiple parts, the final number of canvases determined by the dimensions of the exhibition space. The 102 canvases are installed edge to edge. They alternate between positive and negative imprints as they march along the wall of the gallery: within 1000 square meters, the 135 meters of walls of the second floor gallery of Yuz Museum are specially designed to host this monumental series. It has become the most complete presentation of Shadows in Asia.
