Robert Schaberl: BEYOND THE SURFACE
These seemingly monochromatic images directly address the nature of painting as a material practice. Rather than using this medium to create illusory space, Schaberl has opted to investigate the relationship that develops through the interaction of paint, light and the viewer. The rigorously condensed format of these works opens a surprisingly rich realm of visual experience.
Rui Pimenta: DE FABRICA
He works predominantly with water based and fluid mediums on translucent surfaces, such as glass, plexi and wax. By presenting his paintings in a multi-layered, three dimensional format, light and shadow are incorporated as essential elements of the work’s overall composition.
