This event has ended.

“Opulent Vision” includes a collection of works that highlight many parallels of the contemporary cultural landscape. Spanning across disciplines from painting to sculpture to conceptual works on paper, the exhibition provides a look at a selection of fordPROJECT's inaugural roster of artists, with the debut of new voices. “Opulent Vision” presents unique perspectives that reflect historical ceremonies, mythical lands, and unique architectural environments. The exhibition will fill the gallery’s penthouse space with vivid colors, rich wallpaper, paintings of inspired interiors, and a site-specific installation.

Also on view is the video program “What One Sees Is Not Seen,” curated by Alfredo Hertzog. In the presentation, Hertzog brings together a selection of videos to exemplify the ways in which contemporary artists approach various forms of presentation. Works range from the dream-like imagery of Pipilotti Rist, to the politically fueled films of Mateo Maté and Hans Op de Beeck. Other artists include Mauricio Alejo, Adriana Bustos, Cabello/Carcelle, Filipa César, Goldiechiari, Cao Guimarães, Kaoru Katayama, Jorge Macchi, Antoni Muntadas, and Kamen Stoyanov.

The opening of “Opulent Vision” also marks the second installment of the ongoing collaboration between fordPROJECT and BLACKLOTS. A selection of artworks from BLACKLOTS’ inventory will be on view to enhance and complement fordPROJECT’s exhibition program.
