Hello everyone,
On behalf of the entire team, I would like to warmly invite you to join us
this evening live from NYC via Zoom (7p ET / 4p PT) for our weekly free and
interactive tour.
#127 Considering Art: Considering Atmosphere - featuring urgent work by
Cinga Samson.
Cinga Samson’s (he/him) works inhabit and extend a painterly tradition,
asserting their place within the long trajectory of figuration in art. This
commitment to his metier facilitates an exploration of ideas around desire,
power, mortality and transience. Weaving together the classical and the
contemporary, Samson creates images with symbolic, spiritual and social
inferences, drawn together by subjective narrative.
Samson’s <https://whitecube.com/artists/artist/cinga_samson> paintings
offer a complex and nuanced picture of contemporary life. He relies on his
facility as a painter to render the texture and richness of his
experiences, and for that representation to carry a distinct atmosphere and
feeling. Using a somber palette of muted tones, Samson’s paintings portray
subjects that command an unusual autonomy and authority. As he described
it, these figures inhabit a world that ‘feels secret, almost holy and
distant’, coming from ‘somewhere no one goes.’
In this tour, we embark on some close looking.
Together we ask: What do you see?
