About the presentation 
Lévy Gorvy Dayan will present the debut New York solo exhibition of the British painter Alison Watt at Independent and in parallel at the gallery’s New York location. Watt’s meditative works are totems to the act of painting, offering a powerful counterpoint to the media saturation of our contemporary world. Harnessing art historical references and deft figurative realism, her still-lifes of draped fabric convey focus, consideration, and quietude. According to the artist, “great paintings don’t reveal themselves all at once, if at all, and you can really only guess at their meaning. All we really know is how they affect us.”
