13 Bridges: Harry Adams Corrected

Jimmy Cauty & Harry Adams
Curated by STOT21

BLACK CUBE GALLERY, FISH ISLAND

13th July - 13th September 2023

"Some artists don't know when to stop, others barely even start. Harry Adams makes a promising start on half imagined landscapes but consistently fails to see the bigger picture.

By deftly dropping a few thousand tons of concrete and tarmac into the unfinished scenes the potential is realised and the completed landscape is now in perfect dis-harmony with 21st century infrastructure."

- Jimmy Cauty

COLLIDER Part 2 - the book

Harry Adams present: COLLIDER PART 2 (the book) double vision

COLLIDER part 2 (the book) double vision is a remix of the paintings made for COLLIDER part 1: (the exhibition), an online exhibition of screen-printed landscape paintings made during the Covid-19 lockdown of 2020.

Mirroring and zooming in on the screen-print paintings, confusing the original and the digital image, manipulated, made real again, into something new.

COLLIDER part 2 (the book) double vision can be read front ways, back ways, in a mirror, or on a Zoom call without diminishing your viewing experience.

NOW AVAILABLE TO VIEW

ONLINE ONLY

As other galleries around the country reopen and eagerly await
the vaccine-drenched return to 'normal',
we here at L-13 once again decide to buck the trend, ignore government advice, and refuse to leave the peace & quiet of lockdown life (and the cold, dark basement).

To that effect this exhibition is only available to view on our website, from now until the end of time.

EXTRACT FROM EXHIBITION NOTES

Harry Adams: COLLIDER part 1

The original HA Collider was a theoretical experiment invented by Harold Rosenbloom Snr for the HA Protocol 2013. The methodology required Marcel Duchamp in one wheelbarrow and Edvard Munch in another, with both being pushed at high speed towards each other through a large cardboard tube by two notable contemporary artists (possibly Martin Creed and Anselm Kiefer, but any would do) until they smash into each other. Rosenbloom conjectured that within the wreckage of that crash a new egalitarian and timeless art would be formed: part mechanical, part human, and of great terror and beauty.

WORK FOR SALE
Every single of the 86 pieces made for this exhibition are available to buy

13 "COLLISION PRINT PAINTINGS" are available at a reduced price. These have been randomly selected and can be found mixed in with the full priced work.

Available to purchase directly from L-13.

Dark Waters Rising Screen Prints

Screen prints derived from two or three Harry Adams paintings that have been simplified and half-toned: Flooded Valley, Blue Cloud, and Nothing Remains Unchanged But The Clouds. The motifs mashed together in overlapping layers to form variations of the same image. All the same but all different with interlocking and offset colours and textures to create a beautified yet miasmic landscape.

EACH PRINT UNIQUE
POT LUCK COLOUR-WAY

THERE WILL BE NO CHOOSING, DELIBERATING OR BARGAINING
Choice is an illusion and you must play with the hand you are dealt. 
The illusion of choice causes stress. L-13 is dedicated to relieving stress. For this we do not allow you a choice of colour-way or allow you to worry about the condition of your print. We won’t even choose. All the prints will be sealed in a cardboard portfolio and you will be surprised and happy with what you receive, and the world will be at peace.
