The Painting of Modern Life
Curated by Ralph Rugoff
The first major museum survey of its kind, The Painting of Modern Life will re-examine what has been arguably the most influential development in the history of contemporary painting: the use and translation of photographic imagery.
Curated by The Hayward Director Ralph Rugoff, the exhibition will chart the international evolution of this tendency over the past 45 years, including seminal photo-inspired works from the early 1960s by artists such as Gerhard Richter and Andy Warhol. Revealing the surprising stylistic diversity of this work, the exhibition also focuses on the great variety of subject matter from the personal to the political addressed by featured artists.
