Summary:

These are exciting times for young painters: corona, #metoo, Black Lives Matter, the climate, globalization - all themes that demand a response. But how do you show your involvement as a young painter, on your own, in your studio, with paint and canvas? And what does that involvement mean if your paintings suddenly end up in the grip of the market? Brave New World, compiled and written by Hans den Hartog Jager, shows that young artists such as Njideka Akunyili Crosby, Avery Singer, Louis Fratino and Loie Hollowell, with very different backgrounds, give very different, fascinating answers to big questions. They combine a virtuoso painting technique with rich references to art history, the everyday world and their personal background. This makes the work of this generation a perfect representation of the world we live in - only more beautiful, more layered, more intense. All this makes Brave New World the perfect overview of contemporary painting. Exhibition: Museum de Fundatie, Zwolle, The Netherlands (28.01-11.06.2023).
