Ugo Rondinone (born Switzerland 1964) who has created notable , often large scale sculptures such as Seven Magic Mountains (2016 to 2021), with its seven painted large, car-size stones stacked in an exercise of weight and balance. Not emerging from any particular movement the artist has a studio in New York and also in Switzerland. His home is in Matttituck, Long Island, fronting on the ocean which is the primary source for the present suite of paintings, smaller scale panels in the upper space of Davies Street. At Sadie Coles HQ Davies Street, and the second space in Kingly Street off Carnaby Streets the artist presents a new suite of paintings and sculptures of magnetic resonance. At Davies Street, where Rondinone shielded the windows with a black out filter to intensify the experience, one encounters some engaging high rising wall works. The new series is called Mountain Paintings, they were previously in stone, the sculptures echoed here in hand crafted stretched canvases; irregular forms painted and balanced in pivots of vertical blocks. This surfaces are built from several layers of gesso, smoothed to support freely brushed oil, brilliant layers of blue, pink, red, yellow, to a rough edge of the given shape. The stretchers are made intentionally to mimic the flattened shape of the given stone. Read more > |

Damien Hirst: The Fact Paintings and Sculptures 2021 This is a major exhibition of the artist and in fact marks Damiens return to Gagosian Gallery after several years. A plethora of works selected by Hirst from his studio holdings, several seen for the first time. His choice pretty much covers his range of preoccupations with some unexpected avenues opening up. Past the foyer of imitation Bentley and Skinner cabinets displaying alluring diamond necklaces and adornments, but made of faux-materials, to encounter a vast canvas of butterfly and cherry blossom from 2009, Papilio Glaucus in Gerbera, dimensions about ten feet square. What is the technique that is employed here? It looks in its immaculate detail like a giclee print or photo transfer. The image is flawless, from the microcosmic webbing of the flattened wings of the insect to soft blush pink of backdrop blooms, resembling a deliberate imitation of a focused subject and indeterminate area beyond te camera range. The sparkling lilac wings flattened against the open petal of a brilliant yellow flower and blossom is identified against a smooth sage green ground. Most interesting is the clean whit primed side of the block canvas American style, from which the eye scans across a immaculate even surface of perfectly stretched canvas. This formula of presentation repeats through the array of different sized studies, from minute to expansive. The white unframed borders keyed against to white surface of the gallery walls, a customary mode for contemporary art, white border statement for a white culture. The work aims for an iconic statement, it holds attention with quiet deliberation, magnetising the viewer who is held in place painlessly like the moth or butterfly. Read more > |
