Liam Everett: Fais semblant qu’on n’est pas ici
Altman Siegel is pleased to announce Fais semblant qu’on n’est pas ici, Liam Everett’s third solo exhibition at Altman Siegel. Building on recent investigations, Everett presents a new body of work that unfolds interrelated systems and interpretations of support. Fais semblant qu’on n’est pas ici includes new paintings, sculpture and a raised floor. Highlighting the gallery space through a transformation of architecture and light, Everett’s installation emphasizes the physical act of supporting a painting, the routine practice an artist undertakes daily, as well as pedagogical rituals shaped through rehearsal.
