Martin Creed’s exhibition at Hauser & Wirth’s 69th Street location includes portraits painted by leaping high in the air with a paintbrush, stacking sculptures based on mathematical ratios and room-altering minimal, monumental wall paintings. None seem to involve much effort on Creed’s part to create – this being his signature style – yet each will definitely create a reaction. (Through Dec 21st ).
