Art Fair

The Armory Show 2018

March 8–11, 2018, Pier 94, booth 800
Piers 92 and 94, New York
www.thearmoryshow.com

The Gagosian booth will be dedicated to Nam June Paik. The artist’s monumental assemblage Lion (2005), the centerpiece of the booth, is comprised of a hand-painted guardian lion sculpture framed within a wooden arch and twenty-eight television screens of various sizes. The televisions display fast-paced montages of flowers, animals, and fish, as well as real-time footage of lions and of Merce Cunningham dancing. Lion is emblematic of Paik’s “late style,” in which he often reflected upon artists
and performers who influenced his oeuvre. Individual television sculptures and mixed-media works by the artist will also be on view. If you wish to receive a PDF with detailed information on the works, please contact us at newyork@gagosian.com. Tickets are available at www.thearmoryshow.com.

ART SG FILM 2024
Nam June Paik and Jud Yalkut

January 18–21, 2024, 2pm daily
ArtScience Cinema, Singapore

Nam June Paik and Jud Yalkut’s video Waiting for Commercials, 1966–72 (1992) features in ART SG FILM 2024, a program within the fair dedicated to showcasing new and experimental filmmaking practices, as well as art historically resonant works, particularly by artists and practitioners from around the Southeast Asia and Asia Pacific regions. Curated by Sam I-shan and copresented with the ArtScience Museum, this year’s program, Embodied Presences, gathers works addressing the body’s expressive potential. Organized into four hour-long daily screenings—Movement in Space (11am), Voice and Being (12:30pm), The Worldly and Otherworldly (2pm), and Future Shock: The End of Eternity (3:30pm)—it plays at ArtScience Museum’s cinema. Included in The Worldly and Otherworldly, Waiting for Commercials, 1966–72, an uproarious compilation of Japanese TV ads, is an early example of Paik’s use of appropriated broadcast imagery and was originally produced to accompany a performance work of the same title featuring Charlotte Moorman. The event is free to attend on a first-come, first-served basis.
