On view in New York through October 9th are two exhibitions of Dean’s work. In our gallery’s Project Space, it’s the final weeks of Dean’s series of eighty unique postcard collages, Pantone Pairs, and presented at the Marian Goodman Gallery on 57th Street is the debut of Pan Amicus, Dean's new 16mm film, commissioned by the Getty Center, Los Angeles. In Europe, the Kunstmuseum Basel | Gegenwart, is hosting the premier of Dean’s hourlong 35mm film, Antigone, as well as a preview of Gemini’s forthcoming series of 15 lithographs, L.A. Magic Hour. In London, after making history in 2018 with three simultaneous museum exhibitions of Landscape, Portrait, Still Life, presented at the Royal Academy of Arts, National Portrait Gallery and The National Gallery, Dean once again is the “toast of the town.” Both locations of Dean’s British gallery, Frith Street, are presenting new works, including a new film called One Hundred and Fifty Years of Painting, which takes the form of a conversation between the artists Julie Mehretu and the late Luchita Hurtado. Also presented at Frith is a new film based upon Dean’s designs for The Dante Project, a new commission by The Royal Ballet set to receive its world premiere at London’s Royal Opera House on October 14th.
