A very late review.

ABSTRACT AMERICA:
NEW PAINTING AND SCULPTURE
29th May 2009 - 17th Jan 2010

Right before Christmas I went to visited the Saatchi Gallery, of the exhibition ‘Abstract America: New Painting and sculpture’. It was an exciting show to see which feature some of my beloved contemporary artists, including Kristin Barker and Mark Bradford.

During the visit I also found some new physical form; overwhelming my perspective of American Art. Some of the Memorable artists were Sterling Ruby and Guerra de la Paz.
Sterling Ruby suggested relative to the human body, horror films. But What I found most unusual is the perspective changing of your own distance to the artwork; standing closely to ‘Kiss Trap Kismet’ is like watching the most graceful moderate patterns. Conversely if you are walking to the artwork is like belonging in its horror film, corporeal hallucination phenomenon.
