An exhibition featuring Colombian, English and Danish artists Ivan Argote, Abigail Reynolds and the collective A Kassen. The works presented the exhibition engage with the use and manipulation of artefacts and the artists explore social experiences alongside a reflection on the status of the artwork.
From interventions which playfully and subversively address the public to sculptural compositions reflecting on cultural memories, the objects here play with their classification and reinvent themselves through actions such as dematerialization, rematerialzation and interconnexion.

Doors: 10:00 – 17:45

Rachel Whiteread continues her exploration of positive and negative space, this time casting the interior of a garden shed using concrete.
Following the installation of her first permanent public sculpture in the UK at the Whitechapel Gallery last year, Rachel Whiteread now has a major new solo exhibition at Gagosian.
Her use of industrial casting to present negative space as a monolithic, solid form continues the practice behind her most famous works, including House (1993), Ghost (1990) and the enormous Boathouse (2010), which was installed on the water’s edge in the remote Nordic landscape of Røykenviken.

Cartographies of Life and Death marks the bicentenary of John Snow (1813–1858). The exhibition celebrates his famous inquiry into the cholera outbreaks of 1850s London, and the lasting significance of his work in the fields of disease mapping and public health. Historical documents from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) Library & Archives, the Wellcome Library, the Museum of London and the London Metropolitan Archives, some on display for the first time, are shown alongside specially commissioned contemporary artworks. Conceived as a disease mapping ‘detective’ trail, the exhibition invites you to chart your own journey of discovery across different sites and ways of mapping.

The Stalin quote in the title sets the tone for this show, an often humorous look at Russia which doesn’t shy away from confronting the country’s darker elements.
Young and emerging artists rub shoulders with established figures in the Saatchi Gallery’s first display dedicated to Russian art.
One of the highlights of the exhibition is Boris Mikhailov’s Case History, a series of 413 photographs documenting the disintegration of his local community following the break-up of the Soviet Union.
