Julian Opie Exhibition

Lisson Gallery

This event has ended.

Over the years Julian Opie has quietly observed the homogenisation of the world in cities and the people around him – from friends to strangers on the street – to produce portraits of individuals and society. For Opie’s first solo gallery exhibition in New York City, Lisson Gallery presents a new body of work focused on the artist’s portraits, presenting both individual heads and full-length groups. As Opie’s first presentation in Manhattan since his major Public Art Fund commission in City Hall Park in 2004, this presentation captures the people and daily routines that make up life in communities around New York City.
