Square Art Projects is a contemporary art gallery in London and Venezuela. Exhibiting and supporting international emerging artists in exhibitions and art fairs locally and globally.
Katherine Di Turi (Caracas, Venezuela, 1972) is a London-based artist. Her work deals with issues related with memory, the archive, and the position of analogical photography in a digital era. Through her collages and photograms, Di Turi explores links between pre-digital image making and the tropes of place and time. She received an MFA in Fine Art Media at the Slade School of Fine Art, London; a BA in Fine Art at the Instituto
Armando Reverón, Caracas; and a BA in Media Communication Studies at the Universidad Católica Andrés Bello, Caracas.
Piers Veness (Portsmouth, 1974) is an abstract geometric painter whose work is informed by the minimalism and spatiality of artists such as Josef Albers, Mark Rothko, and the groundbreaking theatre designer Adolfe Appia. Fascinated by the suggestive power of line as communicative language, Veness’ work considers the monumental and its connection with the passing of time. Veness received an MA in Theatre Design at the Slade School of Fine Art, London, and a BA Fine Art at the University of Northampton.
