William Bradley & Mark Selby : Work Hard,Play Hard

21 Nov 2014-24 Jan 2015

Overview

BERLONI is proud to present a dual exhibition between painter William Bradley and Sculptor Mark Selby. The project is cross disciplinary in nature, linking the painting of Bradley and sculpture of Selby - though, beyond their differing choice of discipline, there is a mutual interest in the legacies of Modernism, the use of parody as a form of critique or investigation and an interest in 'material' craft. Central to the exhibition is an active sculpture; a machine which throughout the duration will change and reform Bradley's paintings on aluminum. Through water and thinner, melting and scraping, Bradley's oil to metal gestures will be broken down day by day through Selby's automotive construction.
