Stephen Appleby-Barr

30 Mar-28 May 2022

Overview

Dreamy and otherworldly, Stephen Appleby Barr’s work blurs the lines between past and present, male and female, fact and fantasy. His atmospheric images remain tantalizingly ambiguous in every way save their power to excite the imagination.

Robilant+Voena’s latest exhibition of the artist’s work in Milan unites four oil paintings with a new series of drawings, executed in traditional gall ink on a fine, semi-transparent stone paper. Evoking the mood and subtle shading of old master drawings and etchings, intricate marginalia and annotations give a further insight into the artist's fantastical universe.
