Hollis Taggart presents The Making of a New World: Art of the 1980s, an exhibition examining a pivotal decade that shaped today’s art world. Amid political unrest, cultural shifts, and a media-saturated environment, artists challenged ideas of authorship, originality, and visual language. The show features figures like Keith Haring, Ed Ruscha, and Sam Gilliam, whose work responded to urban life, mass media, and evolving artistic discourse, affirming painting and sculpture’s continued relevance.
