Gagosian is pleased to present works by Sarah Sze and Stanley Whitney for the inaugural edition of Taipei Connections, an interactive digital platform organized by the directors of Taipei Dangdai 2020.
Split Stone (7:34) (2018), Sze’s first outdoor sculpture, consists of a granite boulder split open like a geode and inlaid with a pixelated image of a sunset. A Million Midnights (2019), a large-scale oil-on-linen painting by Whitney, stacks irregular blocks of luminous tones within the loose structure of a square canvas.
