Bill Hayden

Svetlana is pleased to present Crash Palace, an exhibition by Bill Hayden.

Bill Hayden just closed his third show at Real Fine Arts, which is where he usually exhibits in New York. He wanted to present something like a coda to that exhibition, so that’s what this is. It sounded like a great idea.

The last show seemed like it may have been a new direction for him. It was a body of photographic work and sculpture that seemed almost to package the artist, to deliver him as an image or an idea. Plus, lifestyle. It had that too.

That exhibition closed right as the Frieze art fair was coming to town, where Real Fine Arts has a booth. The exhibition at Svetlana will open around the same time as the fair does.
