Friends & Lovers

October 6, 2023–January 20, 2024
FLAG Art Foundation, New York
www.flagartfoundation.org

Friends & Lovers is an expansive group exhibition that centers on the relationships between fifty artists and their subjects and explores the infinite ways in which we are influenced by our inner circles. Just as a studio visit opens a window onto an artist’s creative process, whom the artists choose to immortalize through their work—be that a lover, partner, family member, friend, celebrity crush, or a fleeting encounter—provides a similarly fascinating insight into their practice. Work by John Currin, Nan Goldin, Rudolf Stingel, and Anna Weyant is included.
