Timothy Taylor is pleased to return to Art Basel Hong Kong with a booth dedicated to paintings, sculpture, and drawings by gallery artists. Our presentation will include new works created specifically for the fair by Daniel Crews-Chubb, Sahara Longe, Annie Morris, Hayal Pozanti, and Antonia Showering, alongside exemplary paintings by Eddie Martinez, Sean Landers, and Richard Patterson. We will also feature never-before-seen paintings by Alex Katz and Paul Anthony Smith.
Highlights of booth 1D18 will include Annie Morris’s sculpture Stack 3, Cobalt Turquoise (2023), in which three orbs balance improbably on a tall plinth. In vibrant turquoise, grey, and cadmium red, the forms create a choreography of precariousness and grace. On 23 March, days before the opening of the fair, Morris’s first institutional exhibition in Asia will open at the Fosun Foundation in Shanghai, offering a broad view into her dynamic practice. In November, Daniel Crews-Chubb will also mount an exhibition in Shanghai—the artist’s first institutional show in the region at the Long Museum. In our booth at Art Basel Hong Kong, he will present a multimedia painting characterised by ecstatic imagery and a densely worked surface.
Antonia Showering will be exhibiting her work for the first time in Asia, with a canvas that explores the nature of memory. Working intuitively in warm, earthen hues, she draws figures out of automatic marks and places them within familiar landscapes. Sahara Longe likewise conjures semi-abstract figures in her paintings, creating uncanny scenes that simmer with quiet tension. Her painting on view is ripe with atmosphere, the result of the artist’s precise yet fluid handling of line and colour.
In April, Eddie Martinez will represent the Republic of San Marino at the Venice Biennale with a presentation of new works curated by Alison M. Gingeras. In our booth, Martinez will feature Untitled (2023), a painting from his Whiteouts series, in which colourful compositions are veiled with white paint. Applied in varying degrees of opacity, the white lends a surprising dimensionality to Martinez’s forms. Nearby, Sean Landers’s seascape 100 Year Storm (Clogher head, Ireland) (2022) offers a breathless image of the sublime, while Richard Patterson’s enigmatic 2023 Woman (TBC) features the artist’s singular commingling of nostalgia, fetishism, and diverse painterly strategies.
Direct from the artist’s studio, Alex Katz’s never-before-seen painting Spring 15 (2023) continues an ongoing series of evocative floral compositions that reflect on ephemerality. In a sun-dappled scene that moves in and out of abstraction, white flowers drift on a sea-green ground. Paul Anthony Smith, presents a new painting from his series Dreams Deferred. In these hybrid works, featuring oil stick and spray paint on inkjet prints, verdant landscapes are viewed through the patterns of chain-link fence, calling to mind issues of access, class, and identity.
