Artists' Talk
2pm Saturday July 20th a talk by artists Ken Turner and Julian Julian Sharples.
Two artists who believe abstraction is a fundamental mode of expression common to all mankind throughout history.
About
This show brings the work of these two artists together for the first time, a ‘Double Vision’, if you like, of their individual visions of what abstraction is.
If abstract painting is the physical manifestation of an artist’s internal philosophical conversation made visible for the world to see. “This philosophy….. is what animates the painter - not when he expresses opinions about the world but in that instant when his vision becomes gesture, when in Cézanne’s words “he thinks in painting.
This visual vocabulary and dialogue is informed by both his visual experiences and visual experiments. Expressing and composing this visual philosophy in paint can only be limited by adherence to criticism and a belief that it’s all been done
