Making of the Exhibition: "A million more things to keep me awake"

A behind-the-scenes look at the making of Enrique López Llamas's exhibition with Black Cube’s Program Manager. Enrique López Llamas's A million more things to keep me awake is an ambitious exhibition. It features glow-in-the-dark elements, sculptures that rotate on disco ball motors, and a choreographed lighting sequence. How did all of this come to fruition at BCHQ? Find out in this "Making of the Exhibition" walkthrough with our Program Manager, Jenna Meacham. Questions encouraged! About the Exhibition: Marking Enrique López Llamas’s first solo presentation in the United States, A million more things to keep me awake introduces three major bodies of work: The Magician, a newly commissioned, large-scale, hand-painted sculpture activated by disco ball motors; Glow on, a selection of suspended glow-in-the-dark, low relief sculptures; and Lo visible, lo invisible, a single-channel short film. Blending humor, nostalgia, and a mix of personal and art-historical iconographies, López Llamas constructs an enveloping constellation of works in which the relationship between presence and absence is centered.
