Spanish Artist Exhibits His Paintings For The First Time In Germany.
With “It Doesn’t Belong to Us,” SomoS Arthouse presents the first exhibition in Berlin and Germany by Spanish artist Carlos Pesudo (b.1992, Castellón), on view August 17th through 28th. On display are a new series of paintings produced during an extended artist residency at SomoS, dealing with the ambiguity of perception and scale, while reflecting on the artistic process itself. Also featured in the exhibition is a video piece shot through a macro lens, bringing into view what the naked human eye does not see.
Working primarily in large-scale abstract painting and video, Pesudo focuses on the process of creative gestation, using the allure of the unfinished, the “non-finito.” Pesudo is interested in “how the action and non-action are balanced on the canvas,” adding: “the kind of painting I aim to achieve is based on gesture and spontaneity, but also on reflection and pause.” Pesudo mainly paints with oil, but often includes techniques such as spray paint, marker, graphite, also paper and glued canvas, or any other material at hand.
Followers of abstract painting, young Spanish art, or those interested in experimental video should not miss the opportunity to see Carlos Pesudo’s new work in his German debut at SomoS.
