Tabboo!, Elisabeth Kley

Garden

Sept. 22–Nov. 10, 2019

New York

Gordon Robichaux is pleased to present Garden, a site-specific installation by Elisabeth Kley and Tabboo! The exhibition is a continuation of the artists’ fifteen-year relationship of shared inspiration and collaboration that includes set design and props for Tabboo!’s stage productions and videos, and photographs of his impromptu performances (shot and edited by Kley between 2004 and 2009), which Kley used as source images for her drawings during that time.

The installation is inspired by the immersive garden environment in Tabboo!’s home studio, Kley’s engagement with Roman wall painting and interiors, and their shared interest in theater design, still life, and floral and vegetal motifs. The gallery will be transformed into a lush garden with functioning ceramic fountains, stools, and plant pots surrounded by wall murals and paintings of decorative architecture, vegetation, birds, and insects.
