Gesso and acrylic paint on nothing! Deb Covell’s new painting at OBJECT / A

with 3 comments

The exhibition Here and Now, recently on show at OBJECT / A, Manchester, UK, featured just the one artwork, a wonderful painting entitled Present (2016) by Deb Covell, a painted black square, without a support, gesso and acrylic on nothing, suspended from the ceiling by wire.

    • Hello Debra, Thank you. Neither the photo nor my commentary quite do it justice. Rather a wonderful thing to see for real.
