This is your last chance to catch Tom Sachs’ exhibition, Tom Sachs: Work, now on view at Acquavella Galleries in Palm Springs, after a run last fall at Acquavella’s primary space in New York that featured Sachs’ unique paintings. The exhibition in Palm Springs runs through March 28, 2021, and includes paintings, sculptures, ceramics, and boomboxes. In this episode of The Picture podcast from Acquavella Galleries, Tom Sachs speaks with New Yorker writer Naomi Fry.
From Acquavella Galleries:
The eighth episode of “The Picture” podcast features a conversation between artist Tom Sachs and “New Yorker” staff writer Naomi Fry, recorded on a rainy Friday evening over mezcal at Sachs’ studio in New York. The two friends spoke on the occasion of the new exhibition “Tom Sachs: Handmade Paintings” at Acquavella Galleries in New York.
Although painting has long been a focus of his practice, this exhibition of conspicuously handmade work is the first to focus exclusively on Sachs’ paintings. With an introduction from gallery director Philippe de Montebello, Tom and Naomi’s conversation touches on Sachs’ love for the Simpsons, his early years re-creating Mondrian paintings with duct tape, and why, according to Sachs, “Creativity is the enemy.”
The Picture is produced by our friends at Bower Blue.
