Exposição - Nan Goldin, Gagosian, Basel, until Feb 10th 2024
Sunny In The Sauna Surrounded By Light, 2008
When you forget to look at someone close to you for a long time and suddenly you look, it’s a revelation. That’s been my relationship to the world and what I’ve been photographing since I was fifteen.
—Nan Goldin
Gagosian is pleased to announce an exhibition at the gallery in Basel featuring Nan Goldin’s video Sirens (2019–20) and large-scale photographs.
Sirens, the first work by Goldin made exclusively from found video footage, is accompanied by a haunting score by Mica Levi. Echoing the call of the Sirens from Greek mythology, who lured sailors to their untimely deaths on rocky shores, this entrancing work visually and acoustically suggests the euphoric experience of being high.
