SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers are presenting an exhibition of works by four of the gallery’s leading women artists—Cao Fei, Jenny Holzer, Karen Kilimnik and Louise Lawler—at Gallery 181, San Francisco. In each of their bodies of work, art and architecture is self-consciously explored, often with overt references to the work of others. Across paintings, photographs, sculptures and video, they examine the objects and structures that surround, enclose and affect us day-to-day.

Each of these artists occupies a key place within both the history of modern and contemporary art and the history of Sprüth Magers: Jenny Holzer and Louise Lawler, whose powerful feminist works began to appear in the late 1970s, often postered around New York City, were part of the gallery’s influential Eau de Cologne projects of the 1980s and 1990s that brought together American and European women artists in exhibitions and publications. Karen Kilimnik represents a key voice of the 1990s through today, and also a whimsical exploration of figurative painting, lush with references to art history and contemporary culture. Cao Fei, whose career developed in the early 2000s, captures the concerns of a new millennium and the advances and perils of globalization.

This presentation at Gallery 181 highlights key projects by each artist, including both recent and historical works, and offer a nuanced view of women’s perspectives on an ever-changing world.
