O Tópico, Chapter 27
October 31 — December 20, 2014
New York: 21st Street
Gladstone is pleased to present O Tópico, Chapter 27, an exhibition of new work by R. H. Quaytman. Since 2001, Quaytman has made her work using a systematic, overarching approach that conceptually resembles a book, in which each successive exhibition is a chapter. O Tópico, Chapter 27 was initiated in 2012 after the artist was invited to propose a permanent installation of paintings for Inhotim, a vast Brazilian botanical garden and art park located in Minas Gerais. Work for the chapter began with two research trips to Brazil, during which Quaytman gathered source materials and took photographs that connected to both Brazil and the ongoing painting project.
