Overview
JENNE CURRIE | TRACY PHILLIPS, EXHIBITION IN VENICE | July 21 - September 10, 2023 | CASTELLO 780 | Venice,...
Working with paint and wood, two  artists, Jenne Currie and Tracy Phillips, forge forms while structuring artworks that invite space and being.

By its nature, painting is a deceptive art. It seeks to represent three dimensions with only two planes. The perceptual shifts between three and two dimensions creates the optical illusion that brings art to life. Working with paint and wood, two  artists, Jenne Currie and Tracy Phillips, forge forms while structuring artworks that invite space and being.

 

Jenne Currie’s paintings balance sculptural space against the limits of the two-dimensional substrate.The shadows made by the suspended shapes are influenced by shifting ambient light. These ever-changing silhouettes allow the passage of time and its accompanying shadows to serve as a painterly component alongside pigments and medium.

 On the other hand, Tracy Phillips straddles a space that shifts between within and without  while her colors illuminate deep passageways. Phillips' brushwork describes naturalistic light effects on configurations balancing on the cusp of the known and unknowable.The perceived sensation is of a world originating somewhere inside the viewer and then traversing beyond into more obscure realms.

Both artists have exhibited extensively in the United States and this show is their first exhibition in Venice, Italy.

Press release

(Venezia, It): Castello 925 presenta una mostra per due persone di collage scultorei di Jenne Currie e piccoli dipinti ad olio di Tracy Phillips che inizirà il 22 luglio e proseguirà fino al 10 settembre 2023 con un vernissage per gli artisti sabato 22 luglio dalle 18:30 - 20:30 presso Castello 780, Venezia IT. Entrambi questi artisti hanno esposto molto negli Stati Uniti e questa è la loro prima mostra in Italia.


I dipinti di Jenne Currie bilanciano lo spazio scultoreo contro i limiti del substrato bidimensionale. Le ombre create dalle forme sospese sono influenzate dalla mutevole luce ambientale. Queste sagome in continua evoluzione consentono al passare del tempo le ombre che le accompagnano di fungere da componente pittorica insieme a pigmenti e mezzo.


Tracy Phillips si trova a cavallo di uno spazio che si sposta tra interno ed esterno ei suoi colori illuminano i passaggi. La pennellata di Phillips descrive effetti di luce naturalistici su configurazioni in equilibrio sulla cuspide del noto e dell'inconoscibile. La sensazione percepita è quella di un mondo che ha origine da qualche parte all'interno dello spettatore e poi si sposta al di là in regni più oscuri.



Jenne Currie:

Jenne Currie è una scultrice, pittrice ed educatrice d'arte con sede a Woodstock, NY. Ha esposto molto negli Stati Uniti e recentemente ha tenuto mostre personali alla Buster Levi Gallery, Beacon NY e ha partecipato a mostre collettive alla Lockwood Gallery, Kingston NY.


Tracy Phillips:

Tracy Phillips è un'artista americana che lavora a New York City e nelle Catskills. Dopo aver esposto ampiamente, Phillips ha partecipato a molte mostre ed è stato recentemente insignito del premio Arthur Harris dalla Woodstock Artists Association and Museum.


Castello 925:

Castello 925 è una galleria multidisciplinare che funge da crogiolo per le arti visive, la letteratura e la cultura. Il fondatore Luca Caldironi ha immaginato uno spazio dedicato alla creatività, o meglio alla cre-attività, un nesso innovativo a 360 gradi che abbraccia tutto e offre molte possibilità di immaginazione. Castello 925 è una galleria dove espressioni sperimentali di ogni genere si incontrano, collaborano, improvvisano, producono e costruiscono; un luogo per presentare opere “finite” che sono state costruite altrove, ma anche uno spazio dove prendono vita nuove idee e nuove collaborazioni. Castello 925 offre spazio per vivere e respirare, non solo per le mostre, ma anche per la vita quotidiana di un artista, la quiete della ricerca di uno scrittore o lo scambio tra appassionati cercatori d'arte e collezionisti.
