CHRIS SUCCO → THREE PAINTINGS
MAY 17 - JULY 15, 2019
PRESS
High Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of new paintings by Chris Succo. Three Paintings features three new works drawing on Succo’s artistic practice continually engaged with the act of painting and its legacy.
The body of work shows the evolution of his energetic painterly practice, embedded in centuries of art history; Succo’s gesticulatory brushstroke manifesting his audacity and brashness reveals his constant struggle for reinventing himself and pursuing of new directions. Each composition meticulously holds the viewer’s attention and provides a unique insight into represented material directness of the painting.
