Infinite Loop
Alice Amati is delighted to announce its inaugural exhibition, Infinite Loop. Bringing together four international artists.
The artists included in Infinite Loop adopt both classical and contemporary imagery and painterly lexicons, creating a dialogue with the past while questioning current modes of image consumption. With a particular focus on processes of appropriation and mediation of images, their paintings push the boundaries of the medium and demand a slow, thoughtful approach to viewing.
Through individual processes, in which images are extracted from their original context, collaged, layered, exposed, and concealed, each artist creates distance between their work and the viewer and a palpable tension within the representation. At a time when we are so accustomed to rapidly consuming images through digital media, these artists encourage a more considerate way of looking by complicating the viewer's understanding of the mechanics of picture-making. Together, the works in the exhibition demonstrate the continuous relevance of painting as a medium through which we can question our past, understand our present, and create possible futures almost as if it were an Infinite Loop.
