Marilyn Minter

Lehmann Maupin Presents Marilyn Minter’s First Ever Solo Exhibition in Hong Kong

Lehmann Maupin brings us Marilyn Minter’s first exhibition in Hong Kong. The gallery will exhibit recent paintings and photographs by the New York-based artist. Since the 1980s, Minter has been at the forefront of the ongoing dialogue surrounding depictions of women in art and media with her raw, honest, and at times explicit paintings and photographs of women.

Minter gained notoriety during the 1990s, at the height of what was known as “the culture wars” in the United States, a period of extreme political correctness that led to art censorship. Steadfastly, Minter continued her work, going on to develop her signature style of hyperrealistic paintings, eventually earning institutional recognition and art critical praise for her artworks.

When: August 30–October 27, 2018

Where: Lehmann Maupin, 407 Pedder Building, 12 Pedder Street, Hong Kong

For more details, visit www.lehmannmaupin.com
