马乐伯画廊, 倫敦
紧随大英博物馆举办“笔意：纸上作品”——玛吉·汉布林回顾展之后，马乐伯画廊伦敦荣幸宣布即将呈献玛吉·汉布林绘画雕塑新作个展“濒临险境”。身为英国最杰出最有争议艺术家之一，玛吉·汉布林已与马乐伯合作了20年之久，是次为艺术家于马乐伯画廊举办的第8次个展。
与众多当代艺术谨慎讥讽和自我意识的暗喻不同，汉布林的作品对观者形成了一种猝不及防的直接冲击。是次展出的新系列作品令人确信人类正在面对，并确实将为我们的所作所为付出代价，由于生存的脆弱性，人类已“站在悬崖边上”，深陷危险的不止是人类，还有我们星球的命运。
玛吉·汉布林从不忌惮在作品中直面沉重主题，生与死都跃然纸上。极地冰盖消融、移民潮、阿勒颇市及其居民的沦陷、盘旋的幽灵和哈姆雷特式的诘问，艺术家在此次新系列作品中继续发自肺腑地将命运脆弱性淋漓尽致地呈现于观者面前，其对于观者的要求并不在于观者所想，而在于观者所感。
