ALEX KATZ
Schindler House, 15.2.–12.3.2023
Curators: Jia Yi Gu and Gavin Brown
The starting point of the ALEX KATZ exhibition is intimate studies of the artist, including photos of his model, which he cut up  
and processed into so-called “splits.” The haunting, large-scale portraits, inspired by Manet’s images of women wearing hats  
in the sun as well as the low-budget aesthetic of Fassbinder’s film Beware of a Holy Whore, capture fleeting everyday scenes.
