Los Angeles
Hauser & Wirth presents the first Los Angeles exhibition by Martin Creed, Turner Prize-winning artist, performer, composer and ‘Punk poet.’
The exhibition brings together a selection of works that span his dynamic multimedia practice including film, sculpture and live action work. Creed has become known for hugely varied work, which is by turns uncompromising, entertaining, shocking and beautiful.
2021 – 22 35mm film, color, sound Duration: 30 seconds
In collaboration with Dries Van Noten, Creed’s ‘Work No. 2587’ ‘Half the air in a given space’ has been installed at The Little House.
Half the air in a given space is one of Martin Creed’s most celebrated artworks, involving a room in which half of the air is contained within hundreds of coloured balloons. A playful subversion of art and space, visitors are invited to immerse themselves in this marvellous environment.
‘Martin Creed’ is on view now through 8 January 2023 at Hauser & Wirth Downtown Los Angeles. Please visit our location page to plan your visit.
‘Creed is a social artist; the true magic of his work lies in the way it interacts with people and places.’—Jonathan Jones, ‘Martin Creed’s stairway to heaven,’ in The Guardian, London, UK, 1 August 2011, ill. (on Work No. 1059)
On view now through 8 January 2023 at Hauser & Wirth Los Angeles.
