Rob Pruitt’s Masks

On December 2020, Massimo De Carlo Gallery presents Rob Pruitt’s Masks, his first solo show at the Palazzo Belgioioso space in Milan.

The exhibition was designed by Christoph Radl, transforming the gallery into a vibrant, anti-functional cinema, replacing those forced to close due to Coronovirus restrictions. This installation design simultaneously makes Pruitt’s empty chair sculptures the captive audience for his mask paintings and reminds the viewer of the strange and isolating times in which they were created.
