For her first exhibition in London, New York-based artist Joanna Pousette-Dart will present a selection of recent paintings. Rendered in her signature format of multi-panel curved canvases, these dynamic compositions incorporate a myriad of influences, fusing together the beauty and power of light and shape to offer a poetic illusion to the experience of place, nature and one’s surrounding space.
Born in New York, the daughter of Richard Pousette-Dart, a founding member of the New York School of painting, Pousette-Dart attended Bennington College in Vermont and studied with Color Field painters Kenneth Noland and Larry Poons, among others. Never at home with a formalist concept of painting, she has pursued a more poetic approach to format and image throughout her career.
