<p><b>Five decades of pop surrealist evocation from a leading exponent of graffiti art</b></p><p>Spanning the breadth of the American painter and graffiti artist Kenny Scharf's (born 1958) career, <i>Emotional</i> examines the artist's playful yet meticulous exploration of emotions. Long before emojis emerged to fill the emotional gap in digital communication, Scharf developed a visual language that infused ancient pictographic languages with pop aesthetics, resulting in exaggerated, evocative forms rendered in a hypersaturated color palette. Having pioneered Street Art in the 1980s alongside Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat, Scharf has expanded his practice to encompass sculpture, installation, performance and fashion design.<br><i>Emotional</i> showcases more than 120 artworks that are thematically organized by groups of emotions: Anger, Disgust, Fear, Happiness, Sadness and Awe. A noteworthy artwork includes Scharf's new installation, <i>Beach Club</i>, a transportive Californian beachside utopia.</p>
