Haunted Realism
This book was published on the occasion of Haunted Realism, a group exhibition curated by Mark Francis at Gagosian, Grosvenor Hill, London. The exhibition was inspired by the concept of “hauntology,” which was explored in a broad cultural context by critic Mark Fisher, who observed that the aspirations of modernity are now “lost futures.” Haunted Realism examines some of the ways in which artists—including Chris Burden, Douglas Gordon, Romuald Hazoumè, Ewa Juszkiewicz, Meleko Mokgosi, Cady Noland, Gerhard Richter, Jim Shaw, Tatiana Trouvé, and Rachel Whiteread—have approached this condition by confronting the accelerated flow of images in contemporary media culture. The catalogue features an essay by Michael Newman, a photo essay by Charles Ray, and an afterword by Mark Francis.
