"Unbuilt" Exhibition
Southfirst
This event has ended.
The raw material for this exhibition of new work by James Hyde, paintings on photographs made from 2006-2009, is enamel and acrylic paint, digital prints and linen. Styrofoam, papier-mâché, silicone and wood all make appearances, but if perhaps the most famous formulation of the definition of painting is that of Maurice Denis, who wrote that “a painting…is essentially a flat surface covered with colors assembled in a certain order,” then Hyde’s paintings investigate with energy the collision of paint on the flat field of a photographic surface. Everything else builds from this premise.
