A dynamic dialogue between 50 International Artists from the 70s up to today. What's Up New York will build further on the success of the previous shows in london. The show will pull together the work of 50 international contemporary artists working in painting, drawing, sculpture, and Virtual Reality. This diversity reflects the exciting and dynamic contemporary art scene, whilst the scale of the show will provide a broad-spectrum overview and showcase current trends. What’s Up New York will coincide with Frieze Art Fair. The exhibition has been curated around the idea of parallels and pairing. What’s Up New York will create thematic and visual dialogues between the works of up-and-coming artists and those of more established ones. This dynamic enables the younger generation to show alongside institutional figures, whilst also highlighting the work of reputable artists of an older generation. What’s Up New York aims to generate discussions and provide answers concerning recurring themes, the constitution of a visual language, and the interplay of contemporary trends with previous artistic expressions.
