WHO’S ICONIC?
PAINTINGS, DRAWINGS AND MAQUETTES FROM THE WHOSEUM OF WHO THE BAER
Simon Fujiwara
November 7, 2026 – February 15, 2026
Opening: November 6, 5 – 8 pm
With Who’s Iconic? – Paintings, Drawings, and Maquettes from the Whoseum of Who the Baer, G2 Kunsthalle presents a solo exhibition by the British-Japanese artist Simon Fujiwara (*1982). The exhibition, for the first time, focuses on the artist’s painting practice as well as the creative process behind the works: presenting drawings and maquettes which serve as studies to accompany the paintings.
In Fujiwara’s series Who the Bær, the British artist uses the cartoon character he created in 2020—a genderless, nationality-less, identity-less bear—to explore art history, pop culture, and the overwhelming image culture we live in today. As part of his “Whoniverse” Who imitates the styles of well-known artists, questions existing structures, and retelling art history.
