Beginning 1 November 2016, Hauser & Wirth will present ‘These trenchant works were created at an historic moment, amidst the tumultuous political climate of the early 1970s, as the United States suffered under the weight of civil unrest and social dissent following the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr and Senator Robert F Kennedy, the chaos of the 1968 presidential election, and the enduring violence and brutality of the Vietnam War. As the President frolics and plans for the hoopla of a fantastical ‘Asian Tour,’ never far from reach are his sidekicks Kissinger, Vice President Spiro Agnew, and Attorney General John Mitchell.

Guston's acerbic yet provocatively sympathetic take on Tricky Dick. Encouraged by his trusted National Security Advisor, Henry Kissinger, Nixon announced plans to visit China and establish a new era of statesmanship and political relations.

Kennedy, the chaos of the 1968 presidential election and the enduring violence of the Vietnam War. In a witty rebuttal to the President’s posturing, Guston caricatured Nixon’s self-mythologizing identity, sly political manoeuvers, and disposable morals into a farcical cartoon canon.In the newly exhibited works from Guston’s sketchbooks, visitors to the exhibition will get a closer look at the artist’s working process and the development of his imagery.
