| Perrotin Hong Kong is pleased to announce Spectrum, a solo exhibition by New York-based artist, Josh Sperling. This marks the artist’s first show in Hong Kong. Building upon and extending from formal breakthroughs, Sperling works with shaped canvases that blur the lines between painting and sculpture, amongst which are his signature “squiggles” and “double bubbles”. |
| On view in this debut exhibition is a large, immersive squiggle piece consisting of his physical “lines” on the entirety of the three walls of one gallery room, for which the artist uses the spectrum to guide his color choices. In the second gallery room, different sized tondos made of “double bubbles” and circular forms are displayed on all the walls, covered in paint applied using abstract expressionist techniques. Born in 1984 in Oneonta, New York, Sperling has absorbed and re-imagined painting by drawing inspiration from the Abstract Expressionists, mid-twentieth century abstraction (Minimalism, Color Field, and Conceptual Art), Memphis Group designs, and MTV logos, ultimately charting his own course.
