Approaching Entropy considers how two seemingly opposed trajectories in Hassan Sharif's body of work can exist within a single philosophical approach to art. While Objects are constructed via impulse, improvisation and widely available materials, Semi-Systems are governed by numerical equations that are open to chance and error and the outcomes are not predetermined.

In this exhibition, systems are set up to fail and yet sustain a potential for completion and a capacity to perpetuate indefinitely. What emerges are striking new works that represent significant evolutions in Sharif's obsessive processes.
