Abigail Ogilvy Gallery is pleased to present new work by Wilhelm Neusser in his second solo show with our Boston gallery. Like the grammatical term from which it takes its name, the exhibition situates us in the present, describing actions that will one day be finished. Figures amidst rugged mountainous terrain and Boston’s dense urban grid ask us to attend to the question: what will we have done? Reflecting on the outcome of our current choices, Neusser’s powerful suite of paintings considers how our future selves – and generations to follow – will see and understand our actions. The prospect of the future holds both a promise and a threat – the perfect and the tense.
