Ever the barometer of popular culture, Stuart Semple’s new show Everlasting Nothing Less charts the rise and fall of the reproduced image and human created spectacle. Defined in the words of Art Forum’s critic, Adam Ganderson, as ‘The offspring of Andy Warhol and Jeff Koons, as styled for MTV’, Stuart Semple carries Pop Art’s legacy towards a new, provocative level.

In Everlasting Nothing Less, he adds a deeper, darker, beautiful dimension with these new works, which include several large-scale drawings, installations and paintings. The series draws on the Second Law of Thermodynamics, in which everything must necessarily return to equilibrium. As such, the stellar rise of overnight celebrities, the dizzying proliferation of icons of popular culture, and the mechanisms for recording and transmitting them result in decay and ultimately destruction. His first solo show launches at Anna Kustera Gallery in New York on May 16.
