We’re thrilled to announce an upcoming exhibition in collaboration with the esteemed NISO, curated by Jenn Ellis. Supported by APSARA, the exhibition will explore the theme of landscape through the works of a diverse array of artists, both living and non-living: Jamiu Agboke, Pierre-Athanase Chauvin, Francesco Cima, Janus La Cour, Katy Moran, Sawako Nasu, SALVO, Ulf Saupe, Alexandre Wagner, José Antonio da Silva.
Centering on perceptions of the world around us, ‘Cirrus: On Landscape’, at NISO, is a group show placing in dialogue emerging and historical artists, spanning Asia to Europe and Latin America. Taking its cue from a type of cloud – cirrus, a wispy genus that is distinctive for its movement and shifting – the exhibition, curated by Jenn Ellis, points to the evolving nature of our perceptions, whether they be from art historical approaches at different points in time, or distinctive geographic vantage points. Drawing connections between more descriptive or precise articulations over to more emotionally-inclined interpretations, ‘Cirrus: On Landscape’ investigates how the natural environment – as we see or remember it – has inspired artists across centuries and continents. Including works by Jamiu Agboke, Pierre-Athanase Chauvin, Francesco Cima, Janus La Cour, Katy Moran, Sawako Nasu, SALVO, Ulf Saupe, Alexandre Wagner and José Antonio da Silva, the exhibition poses itself as a pan-temporal contemplation of the observed, felt and interpreted world around us.
