Such is the artworld’s recent enthusiasm for figurative painting that one might be forgiven for thinking that this is where all the most interesting moves are being made, but of course this isn’t true. The age-old conversation between figuration and abstraction continues - it’s all image making with a potential to channel emotion, and in a way it’s all storytelling, even when there’s no apparent narrative to follow.
As Picasso put it, ‘there’s no such thing as figurative and non-figurative art. All things appear to us in the shape of forms…they affect us more or less intensely’.
The artists whose work is gathered in this exhibition have all made a commitment to a certain way of working, exploring the possibilities of colour, form, light and shape. In many cases their work also dodges the usual distinctions between painting and sculpture, slipping between two and three dimensions.
