And that immediately sets up a kind of narrative. I always hope to be able to make a great number of figures without a narrative." —Francis Bacon Gagosian, Grosvenor Hill, London, is pleased to present "Couplings," an exhibition of Francis Bacon’s double-figure paintings. In Bacon’s paintings, the human presence is evoked sometimes viscerally, at other times more fleetingly, in the form of a shadow or a blurred, watchful figure. In certain instances, the portrayal takes the form of a composite in which male and female bodily traits are transposed or fused. This selective exhibition explores a theme that preoccupied Bacon throughout his career: the relationship between two people, both physical and psychological.
