John Giorno: God Complex

Galerie Eva Presenhuber is pleased to present God Complex, the gallery’s second solo exhibition with the late US-American artist and poet John Giorno (1936–2019). The exhibition is organized by Giorno Poetry Systems (GPS) and curated by Krist Gruijthuijsen and Anthony Huberman. GPS is a New York-based nonprofit organization that supports artists, poets, and musicians, founded in 1965 by Giorno, who was known for creating new spaces for poetry, pushing it off the page and into the visual, musical, political, and social spheres. Huberman, the director of GPS, invited Gruijthuijsen to co-curate the exhibition, and in lieu of a press release, both curators wrote a letter to John.
