Group Exhibition | So what is it that makes today’s homes so different, so appealing?

27.02.–01.03.2020

Just what is it that makes today’s homes so different, so appealing? British artist Richard Hamilton first raised this question in the title of his 1956 collage, now widely considered one of the very first works of Pop Art. Using domestic space as an allegory rather than a concrete representation of a dwelling, Hamilton sought “to throw into the cramped space of a living room some representation of all the objects and ideas crowding into our post-war consciousness.” 

So what is it that makes today’s homes so different, so appealing? carlier | gebauer’s salon adopts domestic space as a framework for viewing: a space of retreat, a space of comfort, a space of quiet away from the hustle and bustle of the fair. A central presentation that riffs on Hamilton’s canonical title forms the core of the display: a living room featuring works by Hélène Delprat, Vincent Gicquel, Dor Guez, Asta Gröting, Kyungah Ham, Paul Pfeiffer, Laure Prouvost.
