Viewing single post of blog Artist’s notes

I went to see Limber: spatial painting practices at in the Herbert Read Gallery at UCA Canterbury yesterday. There was a real sense that each piece had be keenly noticed and selected. According to the Cherry Smith’s catalogue essay “One of the significant critical components of the selected artists is how they have problematized the relationship between support and content, blurring the distinction between surface and surround, with content often being equated with matter – either using the support as an extension of content …. or s content itself.”

I still have to digest the other essays – I am still catching up when it comes to the discourse around painting; it can still feel like a “forbidden” thing to do at times.

In response to the show, I had a bit of a play in the studio this morning.
