{"product_id":"slow-painting","title":"SLOW PAINTING","description":"Author: Brian Cass (foreword) and Martin Herbert (text)\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFormat: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPublication date: 10 February 2020\u003cbr\u003e\r\n160 pages\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nSlow Painting presents the work of 19 primarily British and UK-based artists whose work explores ideas around the concept of 'slowness' and what it might mean in relation to contemporary painting: how it might be present in the making of the work, how the works reveal themselves slowly, and how they fit into the continuum of art history.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nActing as a counterbalance to an increasingly accelerating world, painting offers a space of pause, contemplation and gradual unfurling, for both the painter and the viewer. Spanning diverse approaches, from figuration to abstraction and somewhere in between, Slow Painting surveys painting's role as a rewarding repository of time.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nWith an original essay by curator and writer Martin Herbert, this publication also includes a roundtable discussion between a number of the artists and art critic Hettie Judah.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nArtists included are Darren Almond, Athanasios Argianas, Michael Armitage, Gareth Cadwallader, Varda Caivano, Lubaina Himid, Paul Housley, Merlin James, Allison Katz, Simon Ling, Lucy McKenzie, Mairead O'eEocha, Yelena Popova, Carol Rhodes, Sherman Mern Tat Sam, Benjamin Senior, Michael Simpson, Tim Stoner and Caragh Thuring.","brand":"Gordon Harris - The Art \u0026 Graphic Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44178757124155,"sku":"B9781853323652","price":60.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/7299\/6411\/files\/B9781853323652.jpg?v=1789200953","url":"https:\/\/www.gordonharris.co.nz\/products\/slow-painting","provider":"Gordon Harris - The Art \u0026 Graphic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
