Craig & Karl Present First Solo Exhibition in China

Craig & Karl Present First Solo Exhibition in China

Craig Redman and Karl Maier, known simply as Craig & Karl, are an artist duo based in New York and London. Despite the nearly 3,500 miles that separates them, distance has never hampered their process of collaboration. In the past, this has translated into vibrant multi-floor installations at Siam Center in Bangkok, magazine covers for Billboard, and a portrait installation displayed at Manchester United‘s home stadium.

Housed at K11 Art Foundation in Guangzhou, Inside Out is Craig & Karl’s first solo exhibition in China and presents a series of thought-provoking works that expand on their cheerful vernacular. The title of the show alludes to the idea of the interiority and exteriority of our inner worlds and emotions. The artist duo approached this theme by creating a playground of interactive artworks, from giant eyeglasses and neon signage to digital installations and half-tone faces — all of which are overlaid in prismatic color patterns.

“By combining three-dimensional sculptural works and two-dimensional surfaces varying in scales,” says the duo, “from the larger-than-life to the very intimate, an immersive world is created wherein the viewer is provoked to contemplate our obsessive focus on material matter, its emotional value and its place in our lives.”

Inside Out will be on view at K11’s Guangzhou location until November 2023.
