About

Exhibition on the theme of “transitive painting,” artworks that consciously addresses the broader networks within which they are generated and received.Curated by Derek Hampson and Peter Suchin it features:

Jeff Clarkson
Mik Godley
Derek Hampson
Gurminder Sikand
Peter Suchin
Rob Van Beek

Visualising the Network takes the form of an enquiry into ideas outlined in David Joselit’s influential article “Painting Beside Itself”, published in the journal October in 2009 (No. 130, pp. 125-134). As a point of departure, participants have been asked to consider Joselit’s essay, with how they read and expand upon it being left to individual volition. Whilst each artist’s personal trilogy of submissions may be regarded as a micro-network of relations in its own right, the exhibition as a whole emphasises the interconnected, dialogical structure of the networks in which artistic practice takes place, whilst leaving ample room for critical engagement with the individual components of the show.
