Layers-Material and Meaning

Online Exhibition March 3, 2023 – April 3, 2023

Layering is an integral part of longstanding artistic practices; it was used by Titian to build distinctive yet complex color schemes, and was part of the method of avant-garde artists from Pablo Picasso to Barbara Kruger, all of whose work would not be possible without revolutionary exploration of this approach. Site:Brooklyn is looking for works that continue to engage with the relationship between layering and artmaking, keeping in mind that layering is central to the history of art while remaining curious about its future potential. We are looking for artists that work across, and within, all mediums.

About the Gallery:
