Jordan Wolfson’s First Exhibition at Gagosian in New York

Gagosian presents a new exhibition by Jordan Wolfson at its 555 West 24th Street gallery in New York, marking the artist’s first exhibition with the gallery in the city.

The show brings together a group of new sculptures of uniform scale that incorporate color and black-and-white photographs drawn from online sources as well as personal and academic archives. Moving between art history, popular culture, and recurring elements of Wolfson’s own visual language, the works explore the ways images accumulate meaning through memory, circulation, and cultural association.

Throughout his practice, Wolfson has used existing imagery alongside technological and sculptural processes to examine the psychological tension between what is familiar and what feels disturbing or uncanny. In these new works, photographs become part of the physical structure of the sculptures, creating unexpected connections between found images, personal associations, and the wider visual culture from which they emerge.
