Post-Celestial Compost

14 Sep-21 Oct 2017

Overview

Rod Barton is excited to announce the solo show “Post-Celestial Compost,” opening September 14, from English painter Tom Howse. The exhibition includes a selection of recent paintings from the artist’s current practice. Painting at a life size ratio, Howse’s compositions subsequently act as unsettled tableaus: wild vistas and twisted mischievous mirrors. There is no feeling of attempting to viscerally assault a viewer, but instead an allusion to a subconscious, fluidic and instinctive process that invites translation onto the canvas. “Post-Celestial Compost” is the first exhibition of the new season for Rod Barton in London.
