Albert Oehlen’s “Elevator Paintings: Trees” at Gagosian

Gagosian is pleased to present “Elevator Paintings: Trees” by Albert Oehlen. Oehlen’s oeuvre is a testament to the innate freedom of the creative act. Unleashing this freedom through self-imposed constraints, Oehlen sets rules and boundaries in order to test the breaking point of painting itself. Through expressionist brushwork, Surrealist methodology, computer-generated lines, and self-conscious amateurism, he multiplies the potential of visual codes through processes of persistent accretion.

Opening reception: Tuesday, February 28, 6–8PM
