Vienna-based artist Philipp Timischl will present a solo show, 2 at Vilma Gold in London, opening March 19 and running April 16.

The artist makes work that spreads meaning across multiple medias and mediums in build-up objects and installations and inside single images themselves. For 2, we are introduced to the exhibition by an uncertain correspondence between the title and a blurry black and white image of two people with one of them making a peace sign to a camera as the exhibition image.

The artist has recently shown at LA’s Martos LA with solo exhibit, Good From Afar / Far From Good and alongside Sarah Ortmeyer at Tank.TV.

Also on at Vilma Gold running for the same period will be an exhibition of work by Lynn Hershman LeesonLynn Turning into Roberta, referencing the time the artist spent four years in the mid 1970s moving her physical persona and her life’s traces into that of another fictional being constructed and called Roberta Breitmore.

See the Vilma Gold website for (limited) information on both shows**
