Catalogue accompanying the similar named exhibition at the Guggenheim, New York, May 11, 2021 through April 22, 2022. Profoundly empathetic and psychologically intense, Wearing’s photographs, videos, sculptures, and paintings probe the tensions between self and society in an increasingly media-saturated world. ‘Gillian Wearing : Wearing Masks’ traces the artist’s practice from her earliest Polaroids and videos to her most recent productions, including large-scale photographic self-portraits of Wearing in the guise of other artists; a more intimate body of self-portraits titled Lockdown; and installations and commissioned public sculpture. The “self-interview” by Wearing offers a firsthand account of the artist’s practice.
