Curated by Gail Cochrane e Flaminio Gualdoni.
30 works by 16 authors document the results of artistic research in England in the last decades, and constitute a part of Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo’s collection.
“These artists can be regarded as the heirs to the highest English tradition – which connects Richard Hamilton to Anthony Caro, down to Richard Long and Hamish Fulton. They have different intentions and come to different results – rightfully and obviously so – yet they resemble each other in their ability to invent their own unmistakable language, which has characterized the English landscape in recent years. […] They mark the continuity of a research that is wonderfully poised between experimentation and tradition. Above all, they are able to include and elaborate different cultural identities, transforming them into a new language, one that looks towards a future full of memories”.
(Walter Guadagnini)
“The typical work does not exist. If anything, we have the official production of an artist – but this does not interest me. The strongest intellectual emotion is to see artist who challenge themselves radically, trying to push beyond, cultivating intuition: the result are ambitious works, which later come to be called museum works”.
(Patrizia Sandretto Re Rebaudengo)
