Ikon Arts Foundation cordially invites you to a gallery walk-through of David Maljkovic’s current exhibition at Metro Pictures. The show presents an animation, film installation, sound works and display forms, along with collaged inkjet prints mounted on aluminum and a slide projection.
“The exhibited works are a continuation of Maljkovic’s interest in the arbitrary relationship between form and content, as well as his ongoing reassessment of the historical artistic legacy of modernism, his own work and art in general.”
(Metro Pictures, 2013)
Jessie Washburne-Harris of Metro Pictures will take us through the show.
