Giacomo Picca and Felicity Warbrick

Curated by Kitty Stirling

Tricycle Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of new works by Giacomo Picca and Felicity Warbrick. Both artists’ work re-visit the genre of landscape, using different layering processes onto the surface of the pictorial space, to create pieces rich in texture and meaning.

Giacomo Picca composes his paintings with visual material taken from different sources, which are edited into compositions that are layered onto a constructed wooden support. The support and its texture is also revealed as part of the final painting, and the image is created through the process of gluing different stripes of plywood to build up the image and at the same time the depth of the painting.

Felicity Warbrick has developed a particular technique to create her landscapes on paper. She makes her drawings from the back of the paper rather than the front. The ink placed on a matt embeds the surface gradually during the making process. The final image is the one displayed on the opposite side of the paper, as it is revealed to her at the very end once the work is finished.

The absence of the human figure in the work of Picca and Warbrick invites us to experience a transformation in our feelings about the every day. The subject matter that is presented to us is recognizable, but could have well become unnoticeable as we go about our daily routines. The works do not portray a specific, identifiable location and so stimulate our imagination and memory to relate the image to a place we might know or imagine. At the same time they give us a sense of detachment, and self-awareness of the diversity of realities to be found in the urban landscape.

Both artists are not originally from London, but have a shared history of settlement, study and work in the capital. Perhaps because of this, Picca and Warwick works sit so comfortably next to each other. The artists rescue memories from a distant past through their image making, whilst trying to understand the dynamics of images and meaning, how they operate and how can they be re-presented in the social realm.

Their creative strategy talks about consciousness of time and place. It gives reason and authenticity to their practice, and is revealed to us in the simplicity and directness of the techniques they use to create the works.

Picca and Warbrick’s work invite you to open a door and join in; you might have a sense that you are going to be let into a secret. After a while you realise the beauty of that secret: it is a secret shared by everyone.

Vent'anni di UnDo.Net, un'opera d'arte ideata da artisti che hanno coinvolto centinaia di altri autori e operatori nella costruzione di un ecosistema, di un dispositivo che ha influito a più livelli sul fare arte.
UnDo.Net è un dispositivo di creazione di valore immateriale; pensato come "ecosistema" della cultura contemporanea, come modello partecipativo che sviluppi la condivisione di ricerche, risorse e conoscenze, la collaborazione e lo scambio.
In questi 20 anni UnDo.Net ha perseguito il suo scopo: inventare un nuovo spazio, che prima non esisteva, di sperimentazione e di ricerca, di confronto e di dialogo.


Oggi

I risultati di questo lavoro collettivo sono riuniti nelle migliaia di pagine online che raccolgono la storia di tutti noi che ci occupiamo d'arte. UnDo.Net è oggi un archivio vivo e vibrante dal profilo internazionale che contiene e collega tra loro approfondimenti e documenti su autori, eventi, situazioni, ricerche e pensiero. Un patrimonio di risorse per studiare, comprendere e per sviluppare nuovi progetti.
Anche in futuro UnDo.Net rimarra' consultabile e a disposizione di tutti gratuitamente.


Domani

Le differenti personalita' che costituiscono il team di UnDo.Net svilupperanno le proprie diverse professionalita'.
