Curated by Eoin Dara, Felix Gonzalez-Torres: This Place will be the largest presentation of the artist’s work in Ireland to date. The exhibition, which will include a nuanced selection of works made by the artist between 1987 and 1994, will seek to explore the rich contextual pluralities inherent in Gonzalez-Torres’s work in relation to contemporary culture in Northern Ireland, considering dichotomies between solidity and fluidity, proximity and distance, unity and disarray, harmony and discord.

The exhibition will bring to Belfast audiences for the first time iconic works from the artist’s candy spill series, endlessly reproducible paper stack sculptures, a major public billboard work, subtly beautiful light string and bead curtain installations, as well as more intimate jigsaw puzzle works and paintings from significant collections across the world.
