Joyful Sorrow. Chris Ofili / October 26 - December 14 2024

 

Joyful Sorrow is a two-site exhibition by the acclaimed British painter Chris Ofili: new paintings at David Zwirner Paris and works on paper at Victoria Miro Venice continue the artist’s exploration of William Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Othello, the Moor of Venice (1603–04). The exhibition is accompanied by a new publication in collaboration with scholar, poet and writer Jason Allen-Paisant.On view at Victoria Miro Venice is a series of watercolours titled Othello – Reflection, begun while the artist was in Venice. Their transmuting colours and forms reflect the character’s complex interiority – his vulnerabilities and his joyful sorrows.
