Drawn from the collection of Amanda and Glenn Fuhrman, founders of The FLAG Art Foundation, and curated by Cynthia Daignault, Awol Erizku, and Ewan Gibbs, the exhibition includes singular presentations of artworks that reflect each artist's primary discipline and personal sensibilities: Daignault will select primarily paintings; Erizku will select photography and sculpture; and Gibbs will select drawings. Among Friends: Three Views of a Collection is on view June 23-August 12, 2022, and spans the Foundation's 9th and 10th floors.
"The most dynamic exhibitions in recent memory have been curated by artists, invited by museums and institutions to organise shows from their permanent collections. To see artists remix imagery or make unexpected pairings can transform a work you've seen hundreds of times into something completely new," states Glenn Fuhrman. "Cindy, Awol, and Ewan have each been involved in multiple exhibitions at FLAG over the years and have all become close friends of mine and Amanda's. I deeply respect their practices and discerning eyes and am excited to have them recontextualise works that I have loved and lived with for the past three decades."
