Explore the biggest and most comprehensive retrospective of work by renowned conceptual artist Gary Simmons at PAMM from December 5, 2023 through April 28, 2024. Composed of approximately 70 works, Gary Simmons: Public Enemy covers thirty years of the artist's career.
Since the late 1980s, Simmons has created art works that examine race, class and gender identity as reflected in multiple aspects of American culture such as cinema, music, literature, sports and urbanism. Drawing on popular genres such as hip-hop, cult horror flicks, science fiction and vintage cartoons, he's created an arresting body of work that includes large-scale paintings, sculptures and video, most of which will be on display at this timely exhibit.
Gary Simmons: Public Enemy is curated by René Morales, James W. Alsdorf Chief Curator, and Jadine Collingwood, Assistant Curator, with Jack Schneider, Curatorial Associate, of the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. The exhibition will be accompanied by a major exhibition catalogue and slate of related programming.
