Press Release
The family of Hal Hirshorn (1965 – 2025) and Ethan Cohen Gallery would like to cordially invite you to Hal Hirshorn: Surrender Everything to the Sun, the largest and most comprehensive exhibition of Hirshorn’s extensive oeuvre, which includes paintings, abstract washes on paper, and photography. Hirshorn’s penchant for the poetic and the elusive led to a photographic practice in which he made landscapes and portraits with 19th century lenses and photographic processes, most frequently in the form of salt prints. Hirshorn would coat his own paper and print outdoors by exposing them to the sun, ergo the title of the exhibition, which derives from a statement Hirshorn made when describing his process, he was required to “Surrender Everything to the Sun”.
Following the memorial exhibition at 225 West 17th Street, Ethan Cohen Gallery will exhibit Hal Hirshorn’s works at its 251 West 19th Street space from April 9 – May 10, 2025.
