Gala Porras-Kim’s research-driven practice examines how our understanding of cultural artefacts is shaped by the museological and modern epistemological conventions that dictate their collection, taxonomy, preservation and display. Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers are pleased to present a solo exhibition featuring new and recent works by the artist on the occasion of London Gallery Weekend. Both visually striking and thought-provoking, Porras-Kim’s drawings, paper marbling works and sculpture explore the transformation – and possibly emancipation – of objects throughout time.
