Figure With Red Cubes

Creator: Glenn Ibbitson
Offered by: White Court Art

Description
As one may infer from the alternative exhibition title, “Sleight of Hand”; things are not always as they appear at first glance. Figures levitate; tumblers perform unlikely feats of balance. Perhaps… The audience’s perceptions and preconceptions are exploited by a visual subterfuge to blur the line between the genuine and the fraudulent, reality and illusion. An ensemble cast of circus performers provides the perfect opportunity to address issues of disability and outsiderism; gender politics and political spin. Paintings compare and contrast the extraordinary feats of [extra]ordinary people with the elaborate deceptions of sophisticated groupings and elites; individual creativity set against state mechanisms designed to encourage conformity.

White Court Art is based in Wales, U.K and was founded by Richard Veal after many years of collecting for himself. White Court Art specialise mainly in emerging British Contemporary Art, but we also high light artists from Europe, who we think have merit and deserve attention. We have a passion for tracking, sourcing and curating eclectic fine art from Master Copyists to Emerging European talent. We also offer decorative pieces that bring that “something else” to our gallery.
