Xavier Veilhan: Autofocus

Open at Perrotin through December 23, Xavier Veilhan’s “Autofocus” marks a departure from the faceted figures that have frequented the artist’s practice for the last several years. Working across mediums like photography, sculpture, installation, performance, and more, the unifying theme across Veilhan’s practice is his interest in the social aspects of artworks, and the ways art makes viewers aware of the space around them. Visitors at the gallery will find a series of mobiles, suspended from the ceiling, as well as Veilhan’s new faceless human sculptural forms, which appear ghostly due to their smooth, edgeless surfaces.
