Group show
Bortolami is pleased to present Substance & Surface, a group exhibition
that presents monochromatic works made on or with alternative materials.
Using a Piero Manzoni achrome kaolin painting on gravel glued to board as
a starting point, the various works in the show all explore unconventional
or traditionally non “high art” materials such as coal dust, carpet, fabric,
embroidery, tar, plastic and sand.
These materials are often used together
with more traditional art making materials such as paint, ink, canvas and
wood. For some of the artists, the atypical materials have become part of
their primary working methods, for others they represent one series or facet
of their art-making. The artists in the exhibition include: Ghada Amer, John
Armleder, Bozidar Brazda, Piero Golia, Thilo Heinzmann, Gregor
Hildebrandt, Mike Kelley, Jim Lambie, Paul Lee, Glenn Ligon,
Lovett/Codagnone, Daniel Joseph Martinez, Donald Sultan and Eric Wesley.
