Franz West

David Zwirner is pleased to present an exhibition of works from the 1990s by Austrian artist Franz West (1947-2012) at its 537 West 20th Street location.

During this significant decade, the artist's career was solidified through important international exhibitions, and his work moved in innovative new stylistic directions. The gallery will present a number of key sculptures, collages, and installations from this period in an effort to contextualize the evolution of West's singular practice.
