"WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT ?"

MAISON PAN

Curated by Marie Obegi
 

Du 21 mars au 18 mai 2024, Londres, RU

NOTE

"An ambitious exploration of what is shaping contemporary art today, the exhibition ‘What Are You Looking At?’ delves into the myriad inspirations permeating today’s creative minds.

Set within the unconventional backdrop of a repurposed office space in Central London, this dynamic show invites artists and curators to share a more intimate aspect of their process: the artworks, other artists and influences that currently captivate their attention. Participants are asked to submit 3-6 images that are sparking their creativity at this moment. These could range from the tree they stare at from the window of their studio, to classical masterpieces that have stood the test of time, or screenshots from the last series they streamed.

The evolving nature of ‘What Are You Looking At?’ is perhaps its most compelling feature. Each contributor not only offers insight into their personal practice, but also serves as a nomination for the next group of participants, allowing the exhibition to grow organically over its eight-week duration. This process ensures a richly diverse tapestry of influences, showcasing a wide array of periods, styles, and mediums as seen through the eyes of contemporary artists.

By revealing the fluid dynamics of what today’s artists are looking at, this exhibition challenges the notion of art as an isolated endeavour and instead highlights the rich, communal soil from which inspiration blossoms.

‘What Are You Looking At?’ unveils the currents of inspiration through a reflective and immersive lens. It serves as a reflective prism, through which the diverse influences animating today’s creative minds are both illuminated and explored, weaving a cohesive narrative of the currents shaping modern art. The exhibition will engage visitors with a programme of public events, and is also open by appointment." (FAD Magazine)
