Andres Serrano

Barbican Centre, London

Andres Serrano is one of the most controversial and challenging artists working today. Catapulted into the public eye with his now infamous photograph Piss Christ (an image of a crucifix suspended in the artist’s own urine) Serrano’s images are often shocking, intended to provoke us into reconsidering our attitudes to religion, political and cultural issues.

Andres Serrano is one of the most controversial and challenging artists working today. Catapulted into the public eye with his now infamous photograph Piss Christ (an image of a crucifix suspended in the artist’s own urine) Serrano’s images are often shocking, intended to provoke us into reconsidering our attitudes to religion, political and cultural issues.

Provocative and intelligent, beautiful and disturbing, this exhibition is the artist’s first major retrospective. Included in the exhibition are huge colour abstracts of bodily fluids and religious icons, portraits of homeless people, Native Americans and Klansmen, his series on sexuality, and disturbing mortuary images.

This exhibition has been curated by independent curator Mailin Barth, and organised by Bjorn I Follevaag at Foundation[3.14], Bergen, Norway.

This exhibition is unsuitable for children and contains images which visitors may find disturbing.
