“I am trying to create something that is questionable,” says the Scottish painter Peter Doig, “something that is difficult, if not impossible, to put into words.” Doig achieves that wordless magic, but how he does it is the question. A painter of landscapes and figures, Doig’s art balances precariously between image and atmosphere. His sense of color is incantatory. This exhibition at Serpentine brings together two recent bodies of work by the painter, and pairs them with music from his extensive vinyl record and cassette-tape collection. —Elena Clavarino
