(*1944) is a central figure in post-war abstract painting and an unavoidable reference for several generations of European and American painters. (*1957) worked as a designer for the Memphis group in Milan until 1987 and has since devoted herself mainly to painting. The two internationally recognised artists know each other, but have never had the opportunity to exhibit together. Although their work is very different, they share a common attitude that combines their interest in the history of the avant-garde with a playful spirit. The invitation to a joint exhibition becomes a discussion about abstract painting: its historical burden, its decorative horizon, its “commodification” or its relationship to language.

“From Surrealist automatism to the investigation of the unconscious to the depiction of dreamlike sceneries to Abstract Expressionism’s investigations through energetic brushstrokes: such movements and practices of twentieth-century art and culture have become richly incorporated within Tomasko’s most recent paintings. Registering before our eyes as a ceaseless formation and a never-ending dissolution, a given diptych by Tomasko taps into our somatic selves and our psyche, entities that are in states of constant flux.”—Raphy Sarkissian, 2024

Opening today 💥 in 𝙋𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙤𝙧𝙞: 𝘼 𝙨𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙𝙨𝙘𝙖𝙥𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 21𝙨𝙩 𝙘𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙮, , 7 September – 1 December 2024

Curated by Nicolas Bourriaud

Filmed on Fogo Island, Newfoundland, 𝙌𝙪𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙛𝙞𝙚𝙙 𝙑𝙖𝙧𝙞𝙖𝙗𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮 is one of two parallel films that use the same footage edited in different ways.

𝙌𝙪𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙛𝙞𝙚𝙙 𝙑𝙖𝙧𝙞𝙖𝙗𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮 is a sequence of shots that expose the beauty of an isolated location confronting the climate emergency. The film has been subtly manipulated to provide a disturbing shift in the color balance of the footage. The soundtrack is comprised of recordings of various production and logistical processes. It is entirely sonically abstract. At the outset of the film it is fairly clear that you are listening to technical procedures, but as time passes the sound is manipulated to such an extent that the source becomes elusive – sitting between the larsen effect, the polyphonic and the primordial.

In Twofold, Liliane Tomasko’s distinctive, bold lyricism and assertive sense of colour unfold across five new diptychs on aluminium and linen. Opening up spatial possibility, this format allows tone, form and texture to dialogue back and forth across surfaces, sparking new resonances and shaping our understanding of each panel in relation to its neighbour. These paintings must negotiate two distinct voices – sometimes finding harmony, elsewhere tension; forging complex relationships that actively engage the viewer. “To confront these monumental diptychs of Tomasko is to enter a garden of forking paths, a forest of signs,” writes critic Raphy Sarkissian in a newly commissioned text. “Diaphanous and opaque forms coexist within these enigmatic diptychs.”

Sound is a key component of these new paintings, and gives the exhibition its title, 𝘼𝙘𝙤𝙪𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙘 𝙊𝙘𝙚𝙖𝙣𝙨. Taking sound as a universal language, Francis describes the construction of his paintings as ‘like an improvised abstract noise’ that can be both ‘melodic and chaotic’. For the artist, sound transforms into colour, and can ‘reflect the diverse emotions and experiences that shape our understanding of the universe’.

The artist recently said: “Broadway is legendary, and it has been mythologized in art and song. I called my project “Shuffle” after a dance, in the same way that Mondrian, another geometric immigrant, called his painting “Boogie Woogie.” I love the idea of my blocks and stacks punctuating the endless rhythm of Broadway.”

Now open 📢 𝙎𝙐𝙎𝙋𝙀𝙉𝙎𝙀 featuring 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗲 𝗗𝗼𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘆 & 𝗔𝗶𝗹𝗯𝗵𝗲 𝗡í 𝗕𝗵𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗶𝗻

The Ulster Museum holds one of the most important collections of twentieth-century and contemporary art in the UK and Ireland. 𝙎𝙐𝙎𝙋𝙀𝙉𝙎𝙀 contains some of its highlights arranged in three rooms to show the development of the collection.

1️⃣–3️⃣
𝗔𝗶𝗹𝗯𝗵𝗲 𝗡í 𝗕𝗵𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗶𝗻, 𝙄𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙫𝙖𝙡 𝙑, 2023
Jacquard tapestry, cotton, wool, silk, Lurex, Courtesy of Kerlin Gallery, Dublin

𝗡í 𝗕𝗵𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗶𝗻’s practice combines film and tapestry and addresses a range of environmental, anthropological and societal issues. The title 𝙄𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙫𝙖𝙡 𝙑 refers to the ‘Dream Pool Essays’, 1088, by Chinese writer and polymath Shen Kuo (1031-95), now considered the first printed reference to climate change. Due to the costliness of materials and complexities of production, tapestry was traditionally reserved for the most sacred religious and dynastic subjects. In 𝙄𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙫𝙖𝙡 𝙑, 𝗡í 𝗕𝗵𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗶𝗻 inverts this tradition by using tapestry to address urgent concerns of climate emergency, the extinction of species and the displacement of peoples.

4️⃣–6️⃣
𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗲 𝗗𝗼𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘆, 𝙎𝙚𝙜𝙪𝙧𝙖, 2010
High-definition video and sound, 10 minutes, Commissioned by 8, Murcia, Spain, 2010. Purchased 2017

𝙎𝙚𝙜𝙪𝙧𝙖 was filmed in Murcia, an arid region in southern Spain where water is a powerful symbol of power and ownership. The land was in the possession of the Moors for several centuries and the landscape still bears traces of their irrigation channels. The region is close to North Africa and attracts a transitory population who find places of habitation and refuge within the landscape. Doherty filmed 𝙎𝙚𝙜𝙪𝙧𝙖 mainly at night, and his use of intense, saturated colours to depict the unsettling qualities of this semi-underworld resonates with 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗮𝗴𝗴𝗶𝗼’s dramatic use of light and dark in 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙏𝙖𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙛 𝘾𝙝𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙩, also included in the exhibition.

Artist Spotlight: 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗠𝗮𝗴𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗲 💡

𝗠𝗮𝗴𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗲 has long turned his attention to social justice, and his large painting in this exhibition depicts a soup kitchen in the US. With figures populating the composition across a left-right axis, and light emanating from two central figures in hi-vis vests, the painting has echoes of 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙇𝙖𝙨𝙩 𝙎𝙪𝙥𝙥𝙚𝙧 – finding solace and redemption in the sharing of food

A world-renowned abstract painter, 𝗦𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗦𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗹𝘆 is one of the leading artists of his generation. He is best known for his impactful and internationally recognisable paintings balancing dynamic bands of colour in rhythmic formulations, capturing tonality, light and mood with great drama and delicacy. His global but deeply personal perspective has seen him absorb the core elements of the visual world – from the sky and sea to the ascetic modesty of stone architectural structures – as well as the full spectrum of human pathos, from grief and pain to fatherhood.

𝗦𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗦𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗹𝘆 is one of the 12 artists we are exhibiting as part of 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙖𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙚𝙜𝙞𝙣𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙡𝙙. Scully’s painting gives expression to the meeting of land, sea and sky. Six bands of deep colour agitate against one another, distilling the landscape to its most elemental forms through vigorous brushstrokes and undulating colour.

Artist Spotlight: 𝗘𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗮𝗯𝗲𝘁𝗵 𝗠𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗹𝗹 💡

𝗘𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗮𝗯𝗲𝘁𝗵 𝗠𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗹𝗹’s highly idiosyncratic paintings present subjective and psychological takes on the landscape genre. Rich with kaleidoscopic patterning and fragmented forms, these vistas are embedded in place – usually rural settings on the edges of settlements – but transported through the artist’s imagination, memories, photographs or moods to be presented as something other: lush, visionary recollections of hills, lakes, hedges and skies glowing with ambient light.

Light and memory suffuse the landscape in 𝗠𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗹𝗹’s two paintings in 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙖𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙚𝙜𝙞𝙣𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙡𝙙. A row of conifers flanks a view into a blue mountain pass in the distance of 𝙄 𝙨𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙙 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙡𝙖𝙣𝙙, while errant squiggles and acid-yellow orbs distort the scenic vista and hint at the fallibility of memory. Both paintings take their titles from David Bowie’s ominous and mournful ballad ‘The Man Who Sold The World’.

𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗺 𝗠𝗰𝗞𝗲𝗼𝘄𝗻 made paintings, drawings, prints and installations that captured the openness and life-enhancing power of nature. Guided by a belief in the primacy of feeling, his paintings took on the guise of objective minimalism and the monochrome, but presented us with so much more: nature as something real, tangible, all around us, to be touched and felt.

Artist Spotlight: 𝗦𝗶𝗼𝗯𝗵á𝗻 𝗛𝗮𝗽𝗮𝘀𝗸𝗮 💡

𝗦𝗶𝗼𝗯𝗵á𝗻 𝗛𝗮𝗽𝗮𝘀𝗸𝗮’s sculptures present a powerful investigation of conflict, faith and the human condition. Her work uses a dazzling array of materials, each loaded with history and multiple readings: olive trees, deerskins, coconuts, wheat, moss and sheepskin come into contact with sleek aerodynamic forms, aluminium, engines, artillery, concrete cloth and industrial machinery. Ushering these disparate materials into forms that feel anthropomorphic or animalistic, the resulting works spark humour and pathos, reflecting upon our place in a world filled with violent opposing forces and conflicting ideologies.

One of the 12 artists we are exhibiting as part of 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙖𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙚𝙜𝙞𝙣𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙡𝙙, 𝗠𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗻 𝗝𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀 approaches the history and legacy of painting with a highly considered and unconventional viewpoint. Generally small in scale, his works depict diverse subject matter including vernacular architecture, riverside views, post-industrial landscapes, empty interiors, mysterious figures and scenes of sexual intimacy. In 𝙉𝙤 𝙩𝙞𝙩𝙡𝙚 (𝙨𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙘𝙖𝙥𝙚), moonlight illuminates a coastal scene, casting a white glow onto the otherwise desolate brown sands, and flickering on the surface of coarse, choppy waters.

𝗠𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗻 is the subject of a recent monograph, gathering 40 years of his work, available now via our online bookshop. Recent exhibitions include 𝙎𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙎𝙩𝙚𝙥𝙨, a solo show at Kunstsaele, Berlin (2023) and 𝙈𝙞𝙭𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙄𝙩 𝙐𝙥: 𝙋𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙏𝙤𝙙𝙖𝙮 at Hayward Gallery, London (2021)
