FUTURE SEASONS PAST Opens 2/28 at Lehmann Maupin

Lehmann Maupin will present Future Seasons Past, a reflective celebration of its history and a look forward to its future. The gallery has garnered a reputation for supporting international artists at various stages of their careers and presenting work that reaches across disciplines, bringing forward new and challenging forms of creative expression. Known for its long relationships with artists, Lehmann Maupin has had a lasting impact on individual careers as well as on contemporary art and culture.

To commemorate the opening of the gallery's new Chelsea location, Manuel E. Gonzalez has curated a group exhibition highlighting artists that have helped shape the gallery program throughout its nearly 20-year history, including Richard Artschwager, Kutlug Ataman, Kader Attia, Hernan Bas, Ashley Bickerton, Ross Bleckner, Billy Childish, Mary Corse, Roberto Cuoghi, Tracey Emin, Teresita Fernández, Anya Gallaccio, Gilbert & George, Shirazeh Houshiary, Klara Kristalova, Lee Bul, Liu Wei, Mr., Angel Otero, Tony Oursler, Alex Prager, Robin Rhode, Tim Rollins and K.O.S., David Salle, Jennifer Steinkamp, Do Ho Suh, Juergen Teller, Mickalene Thomas, Adriana Varejão, Kara Walker, Nari Ward, Terry Winters, and Erwin Wurm.

Tracey Emin's autobiographical applique blanket Hotel International (1993) was one of the artist's first works of this kind. Stitched with personal statements, imagery and emotional confessions, Emin's quilts correlate directly to her later iconic My Bed (1998), originally exhibited at Lehmann Maupin, and her embroidery practice overall.

On view will be a video by Tony Oursler, The Poetics Project: After Image (1977-2015), adapted from his eponymous multimedia project with Mike Kelley and Jim Shaw. An iteration of The Poetics Project was displayed at Lehmann Maupin's first New York gallery in 1998.

Six paintings from artist Terry Winters' Set Diagram series will also be included. Originally part of a series of 100 paintings, each one yard by one meter, the works were first displayed at Lehmann Maupin's Soho location in 2001 in a site-specific installation created by architect Rem Koolhaas.

From his first show at the gallery in New York in December 2014, Kader Attia's Untitled (2014), a wood sculpture from Oceania repaired with tin, reinforces the artist's investigations into the cyclical relationship between "injury" and "repair". It explores the effects of colonization, both psychological and religious, in non-Western cultures.
