New Representation
Derrick Adams
Gagosian is pleased to announce the global representation of Derrick Adams. The gallery’s debut exhibition of new paintings by Adams will be presented in Beverly Hills in September 2023.
Adams’s paintings, sculptures, collages, performances, videos, and public projects celebrate and expand the dialogue around contemporary Black life and culture through scenes of normalcy and perseverance. He has developed an iconography of joy, leisure, and the pursuit of happiness. Adams’s distinctive style synthesizes representational imagery with planar Cubist geometry to produce multifaceted figures and faces that address the richness of the Black experience.
