NYAB Event - Terry Rose "In Flux"

This event has ended.
At Denise Bibro Fine Art
Media: Painting

Terry Rose’s first New York City solo exhibition features a new suite of paintings executed on aluminum. Residing in the liminal space between abstraction and representation, Rose’s imagery emerges, elides, and expands in a constant state of becoming. There is a magical sense of momentary arrival, then a whisper, urging us to remain in the present, as change is inevitable. Conjuring evolving galaxies, the work explores the microcosm and the macrocosm, and their undeniable interconnectedness.

Rose works flat, beginning with a base coat of wet varnish, dropping in oils, enamels and micron pigments. He is dependent on the fluid nature of his medium, as substances move across and through the varnish. Chemical and physical reactions yield unpredictable forms. Random calligraphic lines appear, resembling a map’s topography. Welcoming chance interaction, the artist creates swirling, cascading passages, occasionally invoking aspects of ancient Chinese landscape painting.
