About
Add Subtract Divide sees artists revisit the abstract painting tradition with new media, processes and experimentation. Some works take physical issue with the discipline by disassembling or reconfiguring canvas and stretcher, preferencing material qualities over any notion of the picture plane. The historical reading of flatness in the language of Modernist geometric painting is investigated using trompe l’oeil and collage, flickering between picture plane and referent. Other works experiment with scale and non-traditional materials to re-position otherwise familiar forms, investing them with political or gender narratives; Geometric abstraction is reworked in stitched lines and layers of applied felt, transforming the medium and linking it to other traditions of making.
GUILLERMO MORA, MARÍA ACUYO, LOIS PATIÑO, RUBÉN GUERRERO, SONIA NAVARRO, ALAIN URRUTIA
This exhibition has been curated with and supported by SCAN Spanish Contemporary Art Network.
