Neuware -Idris Khan is internationally recognized for a densely-layered, poetic body of work imbued with echoes and reverberations that evoke the flow of time. Drawing inspiration from culturally coded sources and artifacts, Khan explores themes including history, religion, music and cumulative experience. Repetition and ritual are central to Khan's approach to image-making and have remained a throughline in his practice. Spanning painting, photographic prints, watercolors, works on paper, sculpture, and video, Khan condenses human experience into imagesthat encapsulate the metaphysical collapse of time into singular moments.Idris Khan: Repeat After Me chronicles the development of the British artist's practice across more than two decades, from his early monochromatic photographic works to a new series of abstract watercolor compositions that encapsulate the essence of iconic paintings of the 16th-18th centuries through their use of color. Accompanying his first US exhibition, this catalogue will feature essays by curatorMarcelle Polednik, art critic David Carrier and a conversation between Idris Khan and artist Edmund de Waal.Hatje Cantz Verlag GmbH, Mommsenstraße 27, 10629 Berlin 244 pp. Englisch.…
