From November 11, 2021, to February 15, 2022, Shanghai Fosun Foundation will present “Alex Israel: Freeway,” the first museum-scale exhibition in China of American artist Alex Israel. A globally influential artist, Alex Israel is famed for abstracted neon gradient spray paintings, his iconic Self-Portraits, and for his bold use of new mediums and materials. This exhibition will present multiple series, covering such mediums as video, painting, sculpture, interviews and installations, including the China debut of the famous series “Self-Portrait” and “Sky Backdrop,” to reveal the uniquely Los Angeles artistic spectacle as seen through the quintessential regional elements of sunshine, waves, and the sky, as well as the artist's unique perspective on mass media and popular culture through the lens of his multiple identities.
