30 x 40

Kalman Gallery and Life is Art Gallery

26 October - 23 November 2024

This project started by giving all the invited artists a wooden painting panel of 30 x 40 x 6 cm, with the instruction of going any direction they want with it, the only limit being their own creativity. As a result they all create their own artwork with it, the only thing that connects all of them is the starting point. The boxes become a personification of the artist, giving the opportunity to share their perspective on this form.
