| Description |
A catalogue for the exhibition Nothing But Time: Paul Thek Revisited 1964 – 1987 at Pace Gallery, London. The exhibition features a rare and unprecedented group of Paul Thek works, across all the media he used, which has never seen before to this extent in the UK. In the spring of 1966 Pace New York presented one of Thek’s first solo shows, Paul Thek: Recent Work; with it as a stepping stone, Nothing But Time offers a unique new perspective on Thek and will mark a historic moment reuniting the artist with the gallery.
From the earliest paintings on newspaper and the singular Technological Reliquary sculptures to the late watercolours he painted prior to his premature death in 1988, the exhibition explores Paul Thek’s pioneering spirit and presents a concise overview of one of the most expressive and forward thinking artists of his time. The exhibition will also feature a rare and unparalleled 1969 sketch book with a series of self-portraits and a glimpse into the thought process and working methods of the artist. |
