In the presence of the artists

REVIVAL II – THE RENAISSANCE is the second exhibition in GOWEN’s ongoing REVIVAL series, following the inaugural presentation in 2023. Building on an original concept conceived by founder, director and curator Laura Gowen, the show brings together twelve international artists whose works explore how contemporary practice reimagines and transforms imagery from the
art historical canon.

For this edition, the show devotes itself to the Renaissance, a period defined by classical revival, knowledge and innovation, and a heightened focus on the human figure. This renewed invitation to look backward and forward at once considers how artists continue to turn their gaze toward the Old Masters, and underlines how the Renaissance is not simply a historical moment, but a living point of reference - one that remains fertile ground for investigation, reinvention, and dialogue.
