Winner of the Hine painting prize in 2022, Albano has developed his ‘meta-painting’ process over the last two years. The artist explores and challenges the potential of the medium itself, asking questions of commodification, consumption and the politics of art production. Inspired in the wake of Jeffrey Deitch’s seminal 2012 exhibition The Painting Factory, Albano began focusing on the ‘brushstroke’, which he creates from air-dry clay and studio waste, which forces us to examine our perception of what ‘painting’ is today, how matter is presented in the world, and how consumption processes infiltrate all aspects of our lives.
The show will run until October 28th 2023. Gallery opening hours are 12 – 6pm, Tuesday Saturday. For further queries, images and interviews contact [email protected] or WhatsApp +44 77 18425153.
