Sprüth Magers – Kara Walker: Ring Around the Rosy

PV: 9 June, 6-8PM

10 June - 30 July, 2022

Kara Walker’s solo exhibition Ring Around the Rosy brings into focus the breadth of her drawing practice. Throughout her career, paper has been central to Walker’s practice, from the cut silhouettes that brought her early renown, to her small-scale drawing series and now monumentally scaled compositions.

In Ring Around the Rosy, Walker’s dynamic inquiry into gender, identity and sexuality is brought into poignant, suspended meditation across drawings of various scales; some produced as recently as this past year further elucidate the timeliness of her perspective on the present.
