Christopher Wool

  • Born in 1955, in United States
  • Lives and works in New York (United States)

At once reflexive and subjective, the paintings of Christopher Wool emerged in the mid-1980s at a time when the medium, declared obsolete, was undergoing disruption. Wool’s early work is inseparable from the context of urban New York, whose dark, underground vitality it captured.
