Opening: 'Towards Abstraction' show

About

Can a departure from reality stimulate imaginative thinking in the workplace?

Gallery Argentum’s forthcoming exhibition at the prestigious KI Europe showroom examines how abstract art can influence creativity in the workplace. In abstract art, the artist uses a visual language of shapes, forms, lines and colours to interpret a subject-matter, without providing the viewer with a recognisable reference point.  This contrasts dramatically with traditional forms of art which set out to achieve a literal and more representational interpretation of a subject and communicate a particular ‘reality’ to the viewer. Taking as its starting point the visual power of abstract art, this exhibition will examine how particular areas of the KI Europe showroom displaying different types of abstract art impact on the viewer and make the areas more imaginative, relaxing and creative environments in which to work.

We look forward to welcoming you to our Private View where you will be able to join us for a glass of wine, meet many of the artists participating in this exhibition and engage in stimulating conversation with new friends.
