Alastair Gordon : Thorn in the Flesh, 2020 140 x 120 cm. Oil and collage on canvas
Alastair Gordon : Without Borders
'Without Borders', a virtual exhibition of new work by Alastair Gordon, curated by New York curator John Silvis, presents new paintings and a selection of collages never before exhibited.
Gordon's new paintings are informed by his ongoing investigation of the collage medium in the privacy of his studio and vast archive of sketchbooks. He states that the genesis of this new direction manifested itself in the form of a question: "What would I make if I didn't have the pressure of an exhibition deadline or the expectations of art collectors?" Enter the reality of new normal—the Covid-19 lockdown and social distancing rules provided unprecedented time in the studio—prompted him to take fresh liberties with his work. The paintings that materialized from this exercise push the collage process front and centre, making it the definitive aesthetic of these complex and raw paintings.
