Solo show by the London-based artist team. Masterminds behind one of the most talked about pavilions (the Nordic) at this year’s Venice Biennale and one of the most visible works (Catch Me Should I Fall) at the Yokohama Triennale last autumn. Here they present their humor-filled SUPERMODELS incorporating garments by fashion designers the likes of Kawakubo Rei (Comme des Garçons) and Furuta Yasuko (Toga). They also gave Miyahara Muga a whirl at modeling (!?) in various settings around town, photos of which also grace the gallery walls.
