Press release

The boundaries of my artwork are never framed—they spill out the door and into the street. I want to remind people that they are a witness to the work.
—Sarah Sze

Gagosian is pleased to announce an exhibition of new paintings and an immersive installation by Sarah Sze. Opening on June 25, Pictures at an Exhibition marks the artist’s return to Paris after her first show at the gallery there in 2020, which coincided with her solo exhibition Night into Day at Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain.

Following its debut at the inaugural Thailand Biennale, codirected by Rirkrit Tiravanija in Chiang Rai this past year, Sze’s immersive video installation Pictures at an Exhibition (2023) occupies the gallery’s entire ground floor. Expanding from the center of the space, a multitude of paper screens are animated with images, video, and light, forming a porous, illuminated core, like a room-sized kaleidoscope. Chromatic projections spill around their edges to cast remnants of light on the floors and walls of the central gallery and surrounding spaces, flickering across viewers as they move around the work.
