Ray Bull “Get Up With It”
Ana Cristea gallery
This event has ended.
What we are looking at when we look at a Ray Bull? Ray Bull’s paintings speak to the impossibility of abstraction in painting. His compositions consistently straddle the line between representation and abstraction. Like magic, they unhinge our ability to settle on what the thing is. We are looking at an image of abstraction, a representation. Ray Bull’s works on canvas spring directly from a dedicated practice in drawing. With a strict adherence to a monochromatic palate, he showcases a style of mark making that seem less interested in expression and more interested in their own form. The paintings are a constant oscillation of expression into shape, shape into picture and picture into image.
