Wa­de Guy­ton & Re­bec­ca War­ren. The Raw and the Coo­ked: The Power of Trans­for­ma­ti­on

The exhibition is based on the dialogue between the British sculptor Rebecca Warren and the American painter and conceptual artist Wade Guyton. The two artists represent outstanding and decidedly independent positions in international contemporary art and have never been exhibited together before. Combining the images and sculptures of Guyton and Warren is a surprising undertaking, but one that promises to be even more astonishing in its outcome. The exhibition at the Bechtler Foundation includes around twenty works, some of them large, such as a nearly nine meter wide painting by Guyton or towering bronze steles by Warren. The exhibits were created between the early 2000s and 2020 and mostly come from the Bechtler Collection, supplemented by a few selected loans.
