Landing
Goodman Gallery New York presents Landing, a group exhibition bringing together a group of five seminal artists - modern, resistance and contemporary -who have each played a significant role in shaping the course of South African art history.
Exhibiting this group of influential 20th and 21st century South African artists in New York - a northern hemisphere center for Modernism - addresses the need for greater visibility for artists originating from the global South as part of a broader vision for revising Art History. Indeed, the presentation comes at a time of a growing international recognition for the importance of these artists as key contributors to what has now been coined global modernism(s), with work held in major collections around the world, including Centre Pompidou, Paris; Perez Art Museum, Miami, Museum of Modern Art, New York; Tate Modern, London, and the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles.
