‘Law of the Jungle’
December 9 to January 28, 2011
Looking to do an exhibition capitalizing on the buzz around Brazil, Lehmann Maupin turned to Brazilian artist Tiago Carneiro da Cunha as curator—and has gotten something much more wild and personal in return, in the great tradition of artist-curated shows. “Law of the Jungle” serves as a showcase for some interesting Brazilian artists, from Jac Leirner, who makes art out of devalued Brazilian currency, to the psychedelic street art duo Os Gemeos. But it also incorporates a more far-reaching selection of da Cunha’s idols and mentors, from the Bali-based painter Ashley Bickertonto the inscrutable British conceptualist Liam Gillick, his former adviser.
