Sarah Crowner: Night for Day

Get ready to see art like never before! Gagosian Athens is turning its gallery into a glowing, colourful experience with Night for Day, the latest exhibition by New York-based artist Sarah Crowner.

Here’s the deal: the moment you step in, you’ll find yourself on a vast floor of bright yellow tiles—radiant and warm, like stepping straight into the Greek sun. But this is not just a floor; it’s an artwork that feels like a stage, inviting you into Crowner’s bold, immersive vision. Head upstairs, and the vibe shifts entirely. Deep greens and rich blues in her sewn-together paintings create a serene, moonlit atmosphere—like exploring a lush garden under the stars.

The artist plays with the idea of flipping day and night. Inspired by François Truffaut’s iconic film Day for Night, Crowner weaves light, colour, and space into an ever-evolving journey through the gallery. From glowing daylight to the tranquillity of night, it’s a seamless dance of contrasts that changes as you move, just as natural light shifts throughout the day.
