Breakin’ Up Is Hard to Do
The concept for this show is a nod to the material changes and fluctuations of seminal artworks, such as the noted cracks on Kazimir Malevich’s once pristine Black Square (1915). The six artists in this exhibition all use abstraction as a starting point to consider material properties and narratives of flux and change.
Until 10 March 2015, KARST, 22 George Place, Stonehouse, Plymouth.
