Gabriel Kuri - Classical Symmetry, Historical Data, Subjective Judgement - Sadie Coles - London


through May 26th 2012

In his second show with Sadie Coles HQ, Gabriel Kuri is exhibiting a new body of work including a sequence of abstract self portraits and a group of floor-based 'platform' sculptures. The exhibition draws its title from an essay by statistician David Spiegelhalter in which he identifies classical symmetry, historical data and subjective judgment as three fundamental bases for calculating the probability of an event.1 In Kuri's exhibition, these factors become sculptural conditions – pointing to the formal and conceptual underpinnings of his works.
