For Art Basel 2024, Galerie Lelong & Co., New York and Paris, are pleased to present works by Etel Adnan, Pierre Alechinsky, Leonardo Drew, Jean Dubuffet, Günther Förg, Ficre Ghebreyesus, Sarah Grilo, Jannis Kounellis, Ana Mendieta, Jaume Plensa, Arnulf Rainer, Paula Rego, Christine Safa, Pinaree Sanpitak, Nancy Spero, Michelle Stuart, Antoni Tàpies, Mildred Thompson, Barthélémy Toguo, Richard Tuttle, Juan Uslé, and Fabienne Verdier.
Unlimited—Art Basel’s sector for large-scale installations, curated by Giovanni Carmine—will feature a monumental, unstretched painting by Ficre Ghebreyesus.
Making its public debut at Art Basel Unlimited, Ghebreyesus’s Untitled (2008) is a stunning chromatic exploration of pinks, blues, and purples, drawing from the bright palette of Ghebreyesus’s mature work. The abstraction evokes an intricate weaving, or a landscape populated with detailed passages. Allusions to windows and portals throughout combined with the fluid, watery composition are reminders of the movement in the artist’s life caused by war and displacement. This sense of journeying and transformation is underscored by the painting’s many and varied horizons. With its grand scale and intended proximity to the wall, Untitled also recalls the religious frescoes and murals of the artist’s childhood in Asmara, Eritrea.
