Poussin
specialises in recent abstract painting and sculpture from a “middle
generation” of British artists. The ambition of their work and the
pre-eminence it gives to plastic and spatial values allies it to the
ascendants of Modernism, especially American Abstract Expressionism and
Post-painterly Abstraction, and nearer home to the British St. Ives
school of painters, some of whom very directly influenced the artists
in this review. Included here are fine examples of significant early
works, as well as more recent and new paintings and sculptures, all of
which continue to expand upon the language of abstract art, and offer
fresh insight into the expressive structures available to the eye. The stand will highlight the work of some of our foremost abstract painters and sculptors. |
