Andrew Pierre Hart | Whitechapel comission

Congratulations to Andrew Pierre Hart, who has been commissioned by Whitechapel Gallery to create new work as part of its spring 2024 season, “Life is More Important Than Art”, a three-month, multi-disciplinary programme of exhibitions and events that explores the interface between art and everyday life and the role of the art institution at a time of uncertainty and change.

Hart's new installation will explore the everyday sonic exchanges in the local environment of Whitechapel and wide themes of City-living through a multi-media installation including painting, sound and moving image.
 
Hart is also the subject of Tiwani’s forthcoming Lagos exhibition: “The Listening Sweet III” will present new works by the artist in his first show in Sub-Saharan Africa. Stay tuned for more details, and in the meantime, head to Youtube to listen back to the artist in conversation with Ocean Baulcombe-Toppin and Rosemary Cronin at Tate Modern last month, discussing how artists are inspired by unseen forces, from new technology to x-rays and the creative subconscious
