Description

Fresh Paint sowcases international artists whose approach to painting is particularly fresh and relevant within a contemporary art context. This publication aims to present a highly selective group of artists whose approach, style, or subject matter is as contemporary as any photography, video, or large-scale installation. It also freatures work that ultimately questions the means and media of paining, challenging the viewer to consider which factors contribute to making a painting fresh and contemporary today. The works range from highly conceptual to more formally oriented, and also touch upon the question of when a painting ceases (or starts) to be a painting. Although these artists are technically proficient at what they do, the significance of their work extends far beyond an ability to paint a pretty picture.
