KUMU KUNSTIMUUSEUM
3 MAY 2019–15 SEPT 2019
TOMMY CASH AND RICK OWENS
THE PURE AND THE DAMNED
TALLINN, ESTONIA


THE EXHIBITION AT THE KUMU ART MUSEUM IN TALLINN DISPLAYS BOTH THE INDIVIDUAL OEUVRES OF TOMMY CASH AND RICK OWENS AS WELL AS THEIR JOINTLY EXECUTED ARTWORKS FOR THE SHOW. DIFFERENT IN PRACTICE AND BACKGROUND, CASH’S AND OWENS’ INTERESTS OVERLAP CONSIDERABLY: CASH’S VISUALS FEATURE A GREAT DEAL OF AESTHETICIZED UNCANNINESS, WHEREAS OWENS’ PRACTICE CARRIES A KINDRED APPROACH TO THE BALANCE BETWEEN FUNCTIONAL DESIGN AND THE PURE MANIFESTATION OF FORM. THIS EXHIBITION AIMS TO UNDERLINE THEIR ARTISTIC POSITIONS, WHICH, ALTHOUGH ORIGINATING FROM DIFFERENT REALMS OF CULTURE, BOLDLY SHAPE THE LARGER PICTURE OF THE VISUAL ARTS TODAY.
