'HONK IF YOU'RE JESUS' at Paul Stolper Gallery
Featuring text works from the 1990s by Fiona Banner, Adam Chodzko, Jeremy Deller, Douglas Gordon, Simon Patterson and Bob and Roberta Smith

About

'HONK IF YOU'RE JESUS' selects ten works by six British artists who all came to prominence in the early 1990s. This was a period when contemporary art in Britain came under heightened journalistic scrutiny and commentary – often focusing on the transgressive nature of art produced by a small group of so-called Young British Artists. This exhibition at Paul Stolper Gallery portrays a different side of the story. Using text as the basis for their work, the artists in this exhibition demonstrate how the new realisms of 90s art were often filtered by an adroit application of conceptual strategies. Their works suggest new ways that art might communicate particular narratives or meanings while also disowning the conventional boundaries of the art object by virtue of its manifestation as a trace of performative acts.
