Joseph Kosuth ‘The Question’

Sprüth Magers presents ‘The Question’, a survey exhibition honouring Joseph Kosuth on his eightieth birthday.

On view at the London gallery, this exhibition celebrates Kosuth’s profound contributions to conceptual art, underscoring his belief that art is not merely a reflection of the world but a dynamic, ongoing exploration of meaning itself. At the core of Kosuth’s practice lies a radical interrogation of language, reality, and representation. His work challenges viewers to reconsider their engagement with the world, destabilising the boundaries between thought and material. Kosuth’s enduring interest in the philosophy of language stems from his conviction that today’s fragmented, unstable reality offers little certainty—calling instead for investigation and experimentation. ‘The Question’ offers a rare opportunity to trace Kosuth’s artistic trajectory from the 1960s to his most recent works.
