Forest Gate by Kasper Andreasen
|
Published by Duizend & Een (2013) In Forest Gate the author explores the traces that enable a painting practice influenced by photography, writing, the materiality of paint, and informal gestures. These traces are accompanied by a short story that tells the account of a character Piotr, who visits a mysteriously destroyed town called Forest Gate. This place proves impossible to comprehend visually. In combination, the essay and the works reproduced here question how the author searches for an ordered image in terms of materiality, framing and composition. The publication investigates the potential autonomy of what may seem like a catalogue: in terms of how the works instigate a piece of fiction and function as metaphors in a writing process. £18.00
