ADAM GREEN – HOUSEFACE
2012-08-13In this exhibition, Green explores a reduction of cartoon imagery into modular sections and the evocative potential of their recombination. The works evoke the explorations of De Stijl and Mondrian crossed with the expressionism of his contemporaries like Joe Bradley, Ben Jones or André Butzer. Green’s architectural inspirations range from Gaudí to Hundertwasser and many paintings specifically reference high density housing, water towers and airports.
Many of the designs are set upon a planar grid. Adhering to the horizontal and vertical laws of the grid – and with their evocation of eyes and mouths – they represent a fusion of the Neoplastic and animist ideologies.
Exhibition runs through to August 25th, 2012
