PRESS RELEASE FROM 22 LONDON:
The exhibition Love, Devotion & Surrender, the inaugural exhibition at 22 London, presents an uncanny array of media-based works from a unique group of internationally recognized artists. The title of the show was borrowed from the 1973 recording by Carlos Santana and John McLaughlin, a tribute to John Coltrane. Yet here, the central themes splinter to merge the cinematic with sensuality, social media with spirituality, spectacle with alternative realities. The artists include: Bill Viola (US), Tony Oursler (US), Petra Cortright (US), Clayton Cubitt (US), Jen DeNike (US), Nathalie Djurberg and Hans Berg (Sweden), Rafael Lozano Hemmer (Mexico), Jesper Just (Denmark), and Shana Hoehn (US). As one viewer penned about the album, the same can be said about this exhibition, “insanely knotty yet intervallically transcendent.”
