JORDAN WEST – TENSION
2024-08-12KÖNIG TELEGRAPHENAMT presents a solo exhibition by the American artist Jordan West. His paintings and works on paper delve deep into the nuances of our contemporary reality. They mostly exclude human presence entirely and seem to view the world from a posthuman perspective. In some works, like HOTEL (2022) and SOLITUDE (2023), West subtly hints at human presence through lit lamps and the headlights of a lone car.
The scenes depicted by West are distinctly contemporary and thus rooted in a specific time. Reduced and clarified to collective, nonspecific descriptions of place and experience, they are stylized representations of reality, memory, and narrative.
Opposite – Hurrying Forward (Hommage à Warhol and Mourao), 2024
