Mark Grotjahn: Backcountry

This poster depicting Mark Grotjahn in his Los Angeles studio was produced in 2022, in conjunction with Mark Grotjahn: Backcountry at Gagosian, Grosvenor Hill, London. Shown in the background of the black-and-white image is a painting from Grotjahn’s Backcountry series, whose title refers to the artist’s ski touring and fly-fishing activities in Colorado. Alluding to rural landscape, the series explores the expressive possibilities of mark making, color, and texture, combining systematic structure with gestural spontaneity.
