Sati Zech "Fettes Rot"
Howard Scott Gallery
This event has ended.
Howard Scott Gallery presents the debut solo exhibition in New York of the German artist Sati Zech: Fettes Rot (2005-2008) paintings. The artworks of Sati Zech are unique amalgams of historically ritualistic mark-making and 21st Century self-expression. The thick, viscous red-hued paint shaped and scrapped upon strips of naked cloth emanates feelings of femaleness: her power and passion, her cycles and repetitions. The layering, the gluing, tearing and sewing all gives rise to the idea of labor specifically woman's labor, a kind of thoughtful, painstaking never-ending work that manifests itself in tactile visions of strength, beauty, necessity, serendipity.
Both familiar and fresh, Zech's artworks float between being paintings, drawings and sculptures; they are in a world, literally, of their own making.
