To celebrate its fiftieth birthday, this comprehensive new catalogue records the breadth of art held in the international Hiscox Collection, as seen through the eyes of two celebrated contemporary artists. Edited by Whitney Hintz and Laura Smith.
Global insurer Hiscox have been collecting modern and contemporary art for fifty years, and their significant collection comprises 1000 works by international artists at the forefront of contemporary practice. Including work by Etel Adnan, Nan Goldin, David Hockney, Joan MirΓ³, Eduardo Paolozzi, and Pablo Picasso, the collection will be on public view for the first time in two consecutive displays at Whitechapel Gallery: the first curated by British painter Gary Hume (b.1962) and the second by Berlin-based Venezuelan artist Sol Calero (b.1982).
The catalogue will include contributions by both artist-curators, as well as colour illustrations of every work in the collection.
