press release

Christopher Wool is a highly esteemed painter belonging to the middle generation who has explored since the 1980s, in new and unprecedented ways, fundamental concerns of painting: relations between the picture plane and the shapes applied to it; colour contrasts between black and white; the painterly and the graphic; the unique and the reproduced. His exhibition at Serralves traces the migration of abstract imagery through different media of representation, namely free-flowing painting and silkscreened print.
