Press Release

White Cube presented an exhibition of work by Theaster Gates. ‘Tarry Skies and Psalms for Now’ included new series of sculptures and paintings that incorporate the processes and materials of roofing. In these works, Gates explores the condition of labour through a physical engagement with materials, interrogating in turn notions of society, class and race.
