The only delights are the delights that last.
Grob Gallery is pleased to invite you to Curated Season: From Sophisticated Centerpieces to Subtle Delights, an exhibition that distinguishes itself through the exceptional clarity and rigor of its selected works. This show assembles an incisive roster of artists — Antony Gormley, Marc Quinn, William Klein, Constantin Brâncuși, Henry Moore, Horst P. Horst, Joan Miró, Willy Ronis, Marcel Duchamp, Ron Arad, and André Kertész — each representing a pivotal dialogue between the enduring legacies of tradition and the restless innovation of modernity.
The sculptures and photographs on view are not merely juxtaposed for visual appeal; they interrogate the boundaries of form and meaning. Brâncuși and Moore assert the monumental through distilled abstraction, while Duchamp and Arad challenge our perceptions of utility and aesthetics. Gormley and Quinn occupy a liminal space where the body becomes both structure and idea. Meanwhile, the photographic works of Klein, Horst, Ronis, and Kertész capture fleeting moments with a compositional integrity that renders the ephemeral eternal.
This exhibition is a statement — a precise orchestration of materials, ideas, and histories — where each piece stands apart, yet contributes to a cohesive meditation on the shifting landscape of contemporary and modern art.
Could you Stand out more?
Ron Arad's R.T.W (Reinventing the Wheel) seamlessly fuses sculpture and design, transforming a functional bookcase into a dynamic exploration of form and purpose. Arad’s spatial sophistication is unparalleled, demonstrating a mastery of material and structure that transcends conventional boundaries.. This work exemplifies Arad's ability to challenge utility with an aesthetic that is both cutting-edge and timeless.

Vividly modern and unapologetically bold. William Klein
Klein's ability to stand out lies in his audacious fusion of grit and innovation, defying the conventions of both photography and the visual arts. Klein embraced a dynamic, often chaotic approach that mirrored the raw energy of modern life. By blurring the boundaries between spontaneity and design, he not only documented reality — he shaped it. His fearless experimentation with movement, form, and narrative made his work unmistakably his own, vividly modern and unapologetically bold.

Horst's : Classical lens of the nude
Horst's Nude; stands as a testament to the enduring vitality of formalism within the photographic medium. Here, the body is rendered not merely as a subject but as a site of sculptural investigation. The nude is neither sentimentalized nor objectified; rather, it is elevated to a distilled aesthetic statement. In its restrained sensuality and deliberate elegance, American Nude asserts the continued relevance of classical ideals, reinterpreted through the lens of modernist lens
