Rhonda Dredge: A Small Abstract Lifts the Room

In A Small Abstract Lifts the Room, Rhonda Dredge is mounting an argument in favour of the visual presence of non-figurative work. There is no need to look too closely at a painting when it has no meaning. René Magritte wrote in 1934 that colour appears as an element of thought. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some words are included in these striking paintings, as mimetic responses to the patterns. Text has a strong visual impact and can help resolve formal problems.

Please join the artist for opening night drinks at The One Star Gallery on Thursday 5th March from 6-8 pm.
