Contemporary Visions V
Contemporary Visions V is Beers Contemporary's fifth annual open-call group exhibition. This year, nearly 2,000 applicants were adjudicated by Amanda Coulson (Artistic Director of VOLTA New York/Basel); Paul Carter-Robinson (Editor Artlyst); Kurt Beers (Director of Beers Contemporary, Author of 100 Painters of Tomorrow); as well as previous exhibitor, artist Phil Woodward.
Since its inception, the Contemporary Visions group exhibition has sought to identify current trends in contemporary art through the discovery of exciting emerging artists working across all artistic disciplines. The fifth instalment presents nine international artists who stretch the limits of their practice to create works that are playfully abstract, invariably bright, with a distinctive, almost acerbic energy. Together, they create a vision of contemporary art that is both unique and referential, quoting from an art historical language and disciplines to reinterpret and reinvent their chosen media.
Featuring Artists: Luke Armitstead, Peter Baader, Austin Ballard, Jonny Green, Jose Carlos Naranjo, Max Olofsson, Felicity Hammond, Oliver Hickmet and Alan Sastre.
