Adam Pendleton
Major exhibition by Adam Pendleton exploring Black Dada and the relation of Blackness to abstraction at the Stedelijk Museum
Adam Pendleton’s exhibition will highlight his unique contributions to contemporary painting as well as his concept of Black Dada—a metaphor for the relationship between Blackness, abstraction, and the historical avant-garde. His paintings and drawings trace moments of spontaneity and control, layering gesture, fragment, and form into works that balance conceptual rigor with expressive intensity.
At the Stedelijk, Pendleton will stage his exhibition in the central spaces of the historic building, engaging the iconic architecture of one of the first “white cubes” in the world.
Curated by Rein Wolfs, Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.
