Evans lived out a boyhood dream as a skater in San Francisco, then began writing and broke through as a visual artist in 2003. Evans works with text-based collages – often composed of short poetic sentences and drawings. Simon Evans captures the poetry of everyday life, to which he can maintain an ironic distance.

Illumination was a lavish presentation of contemporary art from around the world. With works by Gerhard Richter, Cindy Sherman, Alex Da Corte, Franz West, Catherine Opie, Jeff Wall and many more – including several young debuts in the museum’s collection – Illumination was the museum’s largest presentation of new art in the collection to date.
