Sterling Ruby's 'Till Death Do Us Apart' at Gagosian Paris

Sterling Ruby's exhibition 'Till Death Do Us Apart' at Gagosian Paris presents his latest works from his California studio, including sculptural ceramics and large spray paintings that shift toward abstract lyricism. Ruby, born in 1972 on a U.S. military base in Germany, grew up in Pennsylvania and now runs a multidisciplinary studio in California blending ceramics, painting, textile, and fashion. His visual vocabulary draws from declining American factories and contemporary political violence, offering a critique of the United States marked by raw beauty. His Supermax series, a monumental denunciation of California's prison system, and his 2014 collaboration with Raf Simons have established him beyond disciplinary boundaries. The exhibition runs until October 3, 2026, at 9 rue de Castiglione, Paris.
