Max Brand and Joanne Robertson: Poppies
The Gallery of Modern Art is proud to present the debut collaboration between Max Brand (b. 1982, Leipzig) and Joanne Robertson (b. 1979, Manchester). Poppies features new painting and sculpture by both artists, as well as a musical work co-produced in the lead-up to the exhibition鈥檚 opening.
The show brings together two international painters, who also work as musicians. Central to the exhibition is Brand and Robertson鈥檚 desire to 鈥榚xpand鈥� traditional media. They paint directly onto the wall and floor, as well as displaying huge wall hung canvases, floor sculptures and hanging lights, all accompanied by a sound installation. This approach transforms painting from something restricted within a frame to something resistant to containment. Visitors can expect bright, energetic works that appear to have exploded across the gallery space.
