SWALLOW & MOSETTIG AT MODERN ART

Filed under: Art contemporain, Peinture - Illustration | Tags: , , |

Ricky Swallow’s new exhibition at Modern Art presents a mature and dramatic new body of work. These new sculptures form a cohesive family of cast bronze objects, repeating and reorganising a particular set of material phrases in built representations of vessels, masks, and panels.

Klaus Mosettig presents a suite of pencil drawings on paper, each measuring just over one and a half metres square. An earlier drawing reproduces images taken during the Apollo 11 moon landing, which document the surface of the moon in close-up photographic detail.

Modern Art, Londres. 14.01.2011 > 19.02.2011.


SLIP Sensor (PART II)

Filed under: Art contemporain | Tags: , |

Laura Buckley works sculpturally with projected light, making it visible as a medium and causing its dispersal in space, therefore the built environment and structural support that surrounds it have become an integral part of the work. Maria Taniguchi avoids tangible subject matter unless it has been processed through a much wider network. Adam Thompson distances himself from hands-on making excavating found debris and the stuff of the everyday.
