Candice Breitz: Factum

12 Feb—20 Mar 2010
Hoxton Square

White Cube Hoxton Square is pleased to present 'Factum', an exhibition of new work by Candice Breitz, the artist's third exhibition at the gallery. Shot in Toronto, Canada, 'Factum' is a series of in-depth video portraits of twins - and one set of triplets - that extends Breitz's ongoing interest in doubling, portraiture and identity. Titled after Robert Rauschenberg's 'Factum I' and 'II' (1957) near-identical twin paintings, Breitz's 'Factum' explores the modes of internal and external forces that drive individuation.
