Installation
Franz West
November 16, 2023–March 15, 2024
Gagosian Shop, London
A selection of paper-based works and furniture by Franz West is on view at the Gagosian Shop in London’s historic Burlington Arcade. Installed throughout both floors of the space, the exhibited works are imbued with the Austrian artist’s riotous fusion of sincerity and absurdity. West’s series of drawings, posters, and collages, conjured from photographs, tawdry advertisements, and soft porn, possess the same raucous aesthetic and wit as his plaster and papier-mâché sculptures and his elegant pieces of functional furniture, which further expand the relationship between art and audience.

Join Gagosian for a conversation between Oscar Murillo and arts writer, critic, and broadcaster Ben Luke in conjunction with Franz West: Papier, the gallery’s presentation of paper-based works by Franz West (1947–2012) at Frieze Masters 2023. The pair will discuss Murillo’s collaboration in selecting the works on view, which date from the 1970s through the 2010s, as well as his personal experiences meeting the late artist in London in the late 2000s and the enduring impact West continues to have on artists today.
