52 Walker is pleased to announce its “sixteenth-and-a-half” exhibition, which will feature drawings by Raymond Pettibon (b. 1957) related to his lifelong interest in professional wrestling. Organized by Ebony L. Haynes, this two-week-only presentation—part exhibition, part event—will also see Pettibon’s friend and former two-time AEW (All Elite Wrestling) TNT Champion Darby Allin perform in live wrestling matches inside a ring installed within the gallery during the run of the show. On view alongside Pettibon’s works will be drawings, video, and wrestling props created by Charlie Ramone, who is widely known in the sport for his pivotal behind-the-scenes roles.
