Simon Lee Gallery is pleased to announce our third solo exhibition of new work by British artist Toby Ziegler. This group of paintings and sculptures deal with ideas of memory in an age of digital technology. The works trace an analogy between the degradation of images caused by repeated reproduction, and the systematic erosion and reinvention of memory over time. Review by Max Liu
