Philip Guston
Throughout his career, Philip Guston's work metamorphosed from figural to abstract and back to figural. In the 1950s, Guston (1913--1980) produced a body of shimmering abstract paintings that made him -- along with Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollock, and Franz Kline -- an influential abstract expressionist of the "gestural" tendency. In the late 1960s, with works like The Studio came his most radical shift. Drawing from the imagery of his early murals and from elements in his later drawings, ignoring the prevailing "coolness" of Minimalism and antiform abstraction, Guston invented for these late works a cast of cartoon-like characters to articulate a vision that was at once comic, crude, and...

Michael Simpson
Michael Simpson (b.1940 Dorset, England) is an artist whose work is characterised by a reduced palette and a distinctive vocabulary of ?Benches?, ?Confessionals? and ?Squints?, three motifs that appear in three separate series of paintings within his oeuvre.00Whilst his apparent subject is the infamy of religious history and the politics of belief, these subjective references provide only a subtext for his principal subject ? the mechanics of painting.00A ?leper squint? is a feature built into the walls of medieval churches which allowed sufferers of leprosy and other ?undesirables? to view sermons while remaining outside. In Simpson?s paintings the squint appears as a rectangular aperture p...
Simon Moretti: Abacus
Simon Moretti is known for his enigmatic exhibition works, presenting displays that engage with questions of agency, temporality, automatism, desire and masculinity. Incorporating appropriated images and archives as well as curatorial and publishing projects, often made in collaboration with other artists, his work addresses the role of 'curating as practice'.0Presented as a non-chronological visual essay, this publication surveys 10 years of collage works by Moretti. It includes text contributions from writer Craig Burnett, curator and art historian Yuval Etgar, novelists Deborah Levy and Chloe Aridjis, and a conversation with Andrew Durbin, editor-in-chief of frieze magazine.
