Mathew is more than pleased to announce New Paintings / Neue Bilder, a presentation of an entirely new series of paintings by Richard Phillips.

About

This will be the artist's second solo exhibition with the gallery, which also marks Mathew Gallery's first participation in this years edition of GALLERY WEEKEND, Berlin.

Following "Conversations", an exhibition by Richard Phillips at Mathew NYC in 2015 in which the abstractions of Christopher Wool and Albert Oehlen were overlaid on commercially derived imagery, Phillips' new paintings take the conversation back to Germany and one of its most sacred painters: Gerhard Richter.

Using the pastiche of process-based abstraction and its antonym, hyper realism, Phillips' new works attempt to revive the impact of both and return these canonized styles to a place where the mechanisms of their immanent value systems can be examined under the laboratory conditions of the gallery.
