press release

Los Angeles artist, Allan Sekula, has been exhibited widely over the last 30 years. Black Tide/Marea negra, Sekula’s previous body of work to be shown at the gallery, focused on one of the worst environmental disasters in history – an oil spill of more than 20 million gallons off the coast of Galicia in northwest Spain. Fish Story, his extended photographic project produced between 1987-1995, was on view in its entirety at Documenta 11 in Kassel, Germany, 2002. Most recently Vienna’s Generali Foundation held a comprehensive retrospective of work by Sekula that also included the artist's early performance-based pieces, dating back to 1970. He has shown at numerous museums such as The Whitney Museum, Dia Art Foundation and P.S. 1 in New York, ICA in Boston, Witte de With in Rotterdam, and in MoCA's Flight Patterns.
