LONDON, ENGLAND.- An exhibition featuring new work from the Saatchi Gallery by forty young American artists, will be brought together at the Royal Academy of Arts in USA TODAY. Over one hundred new works of art will be presented including paintings, sculptures and photographs. The exhibition will run from 6 October 4 November 2006 at Burlington Gardens, Royal Academy of Arts. USA TODAY features a new generation of American artists, together with other young artists who have moved to the United States to work from Europe, Asia, Africa and other parts of the world. The subjects of these recently made art works, most of which are no more than two years old, focus on the artists views of world events and Americas place in global society. Many of the artists and their works have already attracted attention through their political references.
Virtually none of these works have ever been seen in Britain before and will be the first showcase for an exciting new wave of talent emerging in the US. Norman Rosenthal and Charles Saatchi will jointly curate the exhibition. USA TODAY continues a collaboration established in 1997 with the Saatchi Gallery when the RA presented Sensation, an exhibition that received record visitors in London, New York and Berlin.
Sir Nicholas Grimshaw, President, Royal Academy of Arts said: This is a thought-provoking and exciting array of works from tomorrows big art names. The Royal Academy is delighted to be collaborating with the Saatchi Gallery on this important exhibition.
Exhibitions Secretary Norman Rosenthal said: The Royal Academy of Arts is very excited at the thought of being able to show this remarkable group of artists from the United States. Many of these wonderful pieces are little known or have rarely been seen in Great Britain or Europe. They present a new vitality of art in the United States today and demonstrate a varied array of political and aesthetic agendas of the greatest interest that represent the many vital aspects of life and culture today.
