About the artist
Tschabalala Self (b.1990 Harlem, New York) lives and works in the Hudson Valley, New York. Self is an artist who builds a singular style from the syncretic use of painting, printmaking and sculpture to explore ideas surrounding figuration. She constructs depictions of predominantly women using a combination of sewn, printed, and painted materials, traversing different artistic and craft traditions. The formal and conceptual aspects of Self’s work seek to expand her critical inquiry into selfhood and human flourishing. Recent solo exhibitions and performances include Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Melbourne (2025); Longlati Foundation, Shanghai (2025); Espoo Museum of Modern Art, Finland (2024); Kunstmuseum, St. Gallen (2023); Le Consortium, Dijon (2022); Performa 2021 Biennial, New York City (2021); Baltimore Museum of Art, Baltimore (2021); ICA, Boston (2020); among others.
About the exhibition
‘Studio Visit’ is an exhibition in partnership with Performance Space New York—a nonprofit organization that since 1980 has served as a laboratory for cultural experimentation and artistic dissent— and Hauser & Wirth is proud to support its mission and future programming. Between 2007 and 2010, artists Anicka Yi and Josh Kline collaborated with Jon Santos to form Circular File, a brief but consequential art collective that experimented with collaborative video production, improvisation and the sociality of artistic labor. Fifteen years later, Yi and Kline reconvene to initiate ‘Studio Visit,’ a curatorial project that will also be an art installation in its own right.
Featuring work by American Artist, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Huma Bhabha, Cecily Brown, Nicole Eisenman, Jason Fox, Black Quantum Futurism, Nikita Gale, Georgia Gardner Gray, Jesús Hilario-Reyes, Josh Kline, Ella Kruglyanskaya, Carolyn Lazard, Guadalupe Maravilla, Paul McCarthy, New Red Order, Monira Al Qadiri, Farah Al Qasimi, Alicia Riccio, Tschabalala Self, Avery Singer, Tavares Strachan, Sung Tieu, Wolfgang Tillmans, Rirkrit Tiravanija, Anicka Yi and Ambera Wellmann, the presentation focuses on the artist’s studio in the 21st Century, posing questions about how conditions of artistic work are structured, perceived, and valued today.
