“Coming of Age” Presented by
Virgil Abloh
Little Big Man Gallery is proud to present "Coming of Age", a curated group exhibition by Virgil Abloh. Garnering an international line up of both established and emerging talent.
The exhibition centers around the male youth. Offering us a diverse and complex look at boyhood that traverses class, race, social economics, subcultures, isolation and camaraderie. Ultimately what shapes and makes the man is those formative years of youth and optimism that to an adult is now but a fond and distant memory.

Every page must explode, whether through seriousness, profundity, turbulence, nausea, the new, the eternal, annihilating nonsense, enthusiasm for principles, or the way it is printed.
All the painters who appear in our museums are failures at painting; the only people ever talked about are failures; the world is divided into two categories of people: failures and those unknown.

I do not consider myself a Cubist either because I have come to the conclusion that cubes are not always made for expressing the thought of the brain and of the feeling of the spirit.
I capture all these impressions without any hurry to transfer to the canvas. I let them rest in my brain and then, when I’m visited by the spirit of creation, I improvise my paintings just as a musician improvises his music.

Knowledge is ancient error reflecting on its youth.
It has done me enormous good to finally see and read something in Switzerland that isn’t bullshit. All of it is very nice, it is really something; your manifesto expresses every philosophy seeking truth, when there is no truth, only convention.

The Cubists want to cover Dada with snow; that may surprise you, but it is so, they want to empty the snow from their pipe to bury DaDa.
Are you sure?
Positively sure, the facts are revealed by grotesque mouths. They think that Dada can prevent them from practicing this odious trade: Selling art expensively.

Art costs more than sausages, more than women, more than everything.
Art is visible like God (see Saint-Sulpice).
Art is a pharmaceutical product for imbeciles.
The table turns thanks to spirit; the paintings and other works of arts are like strong-box tables, the spirit is inside and becomes more and more inspired according to the auction prices.
Farce, farce, farce, farce, farce, my dear friends.
