TIME, after TIME- Parallels Between Young American Artists and Italian Masters

About

The exhibition will explore similarities between generations of artists by featuring contemporary American artists Sam Falls, Andrew Brischler, David Mramor, Davina Semo and Rebecca Ward along side Italian artists from the 1950s, 60s and 70s, including Michelangelo Pistoletto, Alighiero Boetti, Alberto Burri, Enrico Castellani, Dadamaino, Piero Dorazio, Mario Schifano and Paolo Scheggi. Many young American artists working today have been influenced by Italian artistic research of the mid-20th century. Through the use of simple and artisan materials in their compositions, they directly or indirectly reference Arte Povera. The young American artists in the exhibition have recently gained wider recognition in the US however this will be the first time the UK public can view their work.
