2-TIMES • Art
Elizabeth Peyton,
‘Practice’
@ UCCA
—
“With a refreshing
directness, the works
in “Practice” draw
viewers into the
hermetic space
shared between
the painter and
the painted, halting
time to capture
glimpses of love,
beauty, and poetry.”
Born:
1965 – Connecticut,
United States.
The exhibition:
Is Peyton's first solo
in China, referencing
the idea of “practice”
as both a regimen of
focused training and
an artist’s ongoing
process and body of
work; featuring
drawings, paintings,
and prints from
throughout her
thirty-year career,
with a particular
focus on work from
the past decade.
‘“Practice” sees
Peyton working
and growing across
a range of media
including gauzy
pastels and watercolors,
oil paintings defined
by intense brooding
tones, and monotype
prints capturing bold,
direct forms.’
