Jeffrey Deitch & Larry Gagosian Opening Cocktail Reception for Pop Minimalism | Minimalist Pop at Miami Design District
Miami, FL – December 4, 2018 – Pop Minimalism | Minimalist Pop was the fourth thematic exhibition to be presented at the Miami Design District during Art Basel. Larry Gagosian and Jeffrey Deitch hosted the intimate cocktail reception. The exhibition explores the intersections and legacies of two major American art movements of the 1960s—Pop art and Minimalism—and the ways in which features of Minimalism have been incorporated into a variety of contemporary art practices. While these two art movements are typically seen to represent opposing artistic responses to the legacy of Abstract Expressionism, the work in Pop Minimalism | Minimalist Pop highlights points of common conceptual approaches and mutual exchange. Work by Jeff Koons, Adam McEwen, Sarah Morris, and Richard Prince is included.
