Thomas Demand, Peter Doig, Andreas Gursky

This exhibition joins three important contemporary artists who have each incorporated reminiscences of Pollock into their works in very different ways: Thomas Demand's work Barn, is a photograph of a paper reconstruction based on the mythical barn used by Pollock as a painting studio; Peter Doig's painting, Daytime Astronomy, takes as its starting point a central figure lying in the grass in an open landscape - the figure is based on a photograph by Hans Namuth of Pollock lying in the same position; while Andreas Gursky's work Untitled VI is a photograph of a Pollock painting hanging in the Museum of Modern Art, New York. All three artists are unified more broadly in their work by the dialogue which they all have with painting and photography and some of the more formal issues being explored in contemporary art, for which Pollock's legacy is key.
