WILD STYLE: Exhibition of Figurative Art

Peres Projects is pleased to present Wild Style: Exhibition of Figurative Art, a group exhibition exploring depictions of the human figure by contemporary artists and unidentified African artists active from 200 BC to the present. Wild Style invites the viewer to experience the exhibition in a horizontal as opposed to a vertical manner, where contemporary works of art stand as equals with works from different cultures and periods.
