The multifaceted Danish artist Per Kirkeby, who died in 2018, was fiercely against conceptualism. “I’m a painter and have painted a painting,” he once stated, “and really, I don’t want to say anything more about it.” The biggest retrospective since his death in 2018, this exhibition focuses on his brazen bronze sculptures—abstract yet haunting figures that captivated the international art world. —E.C.
