Wilhelm Sasnal

About

For his second exhibition at Sadie Coles HQ, this particular group of Wilhelm Sasnal's paintings takes an obliquely political viewpoint. The images tangentially refer to energy, power, geopolitics and oil. In addressing these subjects, he utilises an eclectic bank of references, often choosing to hone in on unexpected detail. Much of the imagery comes from photographic records of Sasnal's recent travels through Europe, South America, Africa and Texas.
