TW Fine Art Press Release:

Palm Beach, FL, December 18, 2020—TW Fine Art is pleased to present DEVOUT UNORTHODOX, a collective exhibition running from December 21, 2020 to February 1, 2021 at its new outpost in Palm Beach, Florida. Divided into four parts by room, each component gives rise to a particular dichotomous experience.

In the foyer, Maynard Monrow’s sculptural work plays with the optical and cultural power of neon to question the logical through an exercise in semiotics; while Brian Kenny’s sports-jersey appliqué banners give a thorough artistic interrogation to the notion of machismo in garmenting and cultural costuming, connoted by his choices of raw materials.

In the salon, the psychological cubism of George Condo comes into dialogue with the surreal sculptural works of Rotganzen, while works by Joan Mitchell, Louise Fishman, and Rashid Johnson elucidate the absurdity in the historical narrative that abstract painting is somehow only a ‘white male artist’s game.’In the parlor and la chambre, a selection of works from Ahmer Farooq, Carles García O'Dowd, COARSE, Kehinde Wiley, Antony Gormley, Elizabeth Peyton, Tanya Minhas, and Todd Pavlisko work synchronously to further interrogate the norms of each artist's particular chosen mediums. Each artist builds upon a conceptual frame to create their artworks.

In the darkroom, we will have a selection of works from the Damien Hirst series “I Once Was What Your Are, You Will Be What I Am,” leading to our final mini-exhibition: Andy Warhol: When Your 15 Minutes of Fame Come to an End, a reunion of “rear ends” from Sex Parts and Torsos.
