KEITH HOPEWELL
โA RETROSPECTIVE REPORT FROM NEW BABYLONโ
PAINTINGS, SCULPTURE AND FILM
HACKNEY GALLERY, 1 LOWER CLAPTON ROAD
26/05/23 - 21/06/23
Hackney Gallery presents a new exhibition of paintings, film and documentation by international artist Keith Hopewell. With over 40-years of practice working with the medium of spray paint, his polymathic approach to artmaking goes beyond the traditional concepts of what spray paint practice is or could be. Over the decades Hopewell has been a major influence on generations within aerosol related culture but is also well-known within the underground avant-garde hip-hop movement. As a youth growing up in the UK, the mass-transit art that transformed the New York Subway left its impression on him. His formative years were also influenced by the sonics of early electro, raregroove, Sci-Fi movies and the visual aesthetics of Sun Ra and his Intergalactic Archestra. This exhibition joins the dots of a journey through time, space and place, from an era without digital photography, social media, or mobile phones, to the present day, where total surveillance is omni- present in our lives.
Private View โ 25.05.23 โ from 7pm โ RSVP
