Contemporary
Visions
is
the
first
group
exhibition
at
the
newly
relocated
Beers.Lambert
Contemporary
in
its
new
premises
on
City
Road.
The
exhibition
presents
10
contemporary
international
artists,
(selected
from
an
pool
of
nearly
1800
applicants
worldwide,)
who
each
question
the
destability
of
the
image
and
of
presence.
The
collective
point
of
departure
for
each
of
the
artists
is
precisely
how
a
vision
of
reality
becomes
translated
through
the
artistic
frame
of
reference.
The
selected
artists
work
in
all
media
and
within
all
genres
of
art
‐
from
figurative
to
abstract
and
even
conceptual,
each
being
selected
for
an
artistic
practice
that
somehow
perceives
reality
as
one
that
has
been
fragmented,
reconstructed,
and
destabilized.
Certainly
the
title
Contemporary
Visions
refers
(at
least
poetically)
to
that
forward
vision
which
might
present
some
transcendent
answers
for
our
present
existence
‐
a
type
of
artwork
(figuratively
speaking,
of
course)
as
self‐fulfilling
prophecy
in
and
of
itself.
Perhaps
more
literally,
it
suggests
a
desire
for
tomorrow's
art
to
achieve
that
vision
which
remains
ceaselessly
ahead
of
the
curve,
referring
to
the
very
acts
and
objectives
of
the
artists
themselves,
as
the
very
nature
of
'contemporary
art'
suggests
an
art
that
looks
to
the
future,
identifying
and
successfully
embodying
that
which
is
yet
to
come
‐
that
which
today
remains
indefinable.
Therefore,
the
exhibition
originates
with
the
notion
that
perception
and
perspective
is
subjective,
and
dependent
on
a
fictional
recreation
of
one’s
perceived
experience.
The
unifying
conceptual
thread
that
runs
throughout
the
exhibition
appears
to
call
forward
to
some
anxiety
toward
an
Orwellian
future
‐
yet
one
that
very
consciously
presents
itself
as
more
Logan's
Run
than
Blade
Runner.
One
might
prematurely
reflect
upon
this
collection
of
work
by
stating
the
exhibition
is
conceived
as
a
vision
of
'tomorrow',
however
in
order
to
avoid
the
oversimplified
connotations
therein,
the
exhibition
remains
about
how
one
sees
and
how
one
frames
the
object
for
receipt
of
the
viewer.
Fleur
van
Dodewaard's
'frames
of
frames
within
frames'
operate
very
consciously
like
photographic
Russian‐dolls:
like
a
second‐party
recounting
a
tragic
accident
which
somehow
loses
gravitas
with
each
retelling,
there
remains
a
phantom
of
some
not‐so‐distant
origin
that
exists
lurking
beneath
van
Dodewaard's
careful
photographic
mise‐en‐scene.
Still,
there
remains
a
lighthearted
play
between
the
intention
of
these
artists
and
the
execution,
presentation,
and
interplay
of
the
works.
Indeed
the
works
appear
to
emanate
a
view
of
a
dystopian
society,
but
this
is
a
view
masquerading
in
utopian
hues.
Matthew
Allen's
subversively
cheerful
tone‐on‐tone
paintings
come
to
mind,
like
candy‐colored
epitaphs
in
bubble‐gum
pinks,
unearthly
greens,
and
sky
blues,
suggesting
a
depth
of
meaning
lurking
beneath
the
surface
of
the
canvas
that
reveals
its
true
melancholy
with
prolonged
viewing.
John
Ryan’s
exploration
of
perception
delves
into
the
purely
material,
in
which
paint
becomes
topographic,
sculptural,
and
utterly
anthropomorphic.
Swaths
of
metallic
oil
paint
are
playful
in
Lindsay
Mapes'
DIY‐style
paintings,
arriving
in
garish
neons,
gold,
and
silvers,
laden
atop
the
canvas
in
purposeful
heaps
like
lunar
astro‐turf;
but
the
vision
here
is
also
gloriously
(and
metallically)
carnal,
with
Rebecca
Griffith's
Twin
Turbo
apropos
for
a
contemporary
fossil
of
urbanity
seemingly
lifted
from
Crash,
JG
Ballard's
pessimistic
take
on
consumerism
and
sexuality.
For
Griffiths,
it
appears
that
inner
turmoil
and
consumerist
spectacle
have
collided
in
some
monstrous,
albeit
slickly
sensuous
amalgam
of
forms.
Nigel
Massey's
plexi‐glass
encased
sculptures
are
like
solitary
tomes
that
self‐consciously
recall
the
West's
search
for
mysticism
through
a
(mis)appropriation
of
Asian‐culture,
perhaps
through
its
ubiquity
in
contemporary
decor
alongside
what
might
appear
to
be
specimens
encased
from
'the
homeless',
(with
media
including
ink‐soiled
blankets,
chipboard,
and
sheets),
these
packages
seems
practically
ripe
for
the
gaze
of
the
museum
visitor
from
the
future
to
consider,
however
accurate
or
not,
scenarios
of
privileged
21st
century
living.
Perhaps
Gigi
Cifali
best
offers
a
tranquil
restaging
of
our
world
‐
reframed
in
cameo
form,
these
photographs
from
the
Vesuvian
landscape
take
on
a
strikingly
contemporary
newness.
Their
presentation
as
landscapes
that
have
been
cut
into
‘portholes’
serves
to
accentuate
the
instability
of
the
image
and
the
artist’s
unreliability
in
presenting
the
imagery

for
the
viewer.
Contemporary
perceptions
of
our
world
‐
endlessly
de‐contextualized
and
re‐contextualized
‐
become
awash
in
a
Baudrillardian
stream
of
thought,
an
endless
array
of
images
that,
through
reproduction,
begin
to
lose
any
particular
individuality.
Zavier
Ellis’
mixed‐media
work
is
presented
like
monumental
palimpsest
of
dystopian
urbanity,
like
a
relic
from
some
imagined
past
or
not‐so‐distant
future,
a
document
of
both
urban
art
and
the
decadence
of
existence.
It
might
be
Roberto
and
Renato
Miaz's
exceptionally
skillful
paintings
that
could
‐
in
one
respect
‐
seem
to
paraphrase
this
ideology,
where
still‐frames
and
fragments
of
memory,
faces,
and
specifics
become
blurred
‐
not
quite
out
of
reach
but
never
fully
attained.
Overall,
it
remains
the
concept
of
that
disconnect
between
reality
and
fantasy
where
the
works
find
their
strongest
thematic
strain;
here
the
vision
of
a
future
reality
is
cyclical,
and
haunting:
Ronin
Cho's
kinetic
sculpture,
Fair
Idle,
features
the
detached
arm
–
cast
from
his
own
body
–
in
an
endless
cycle,
forever
catching
handfuls
of
sand,
only
to
pause
as
it
passes
through
the
cyborg's
fingers,
and
back
into
the
pool
of
sand.
It
is
a
futile
act,
repeated
out
of
preconditioning
and
the
inability
to
defy
its
apparent
purpose.
What
Cho
seems
to
critique
with
this
piece
is
mirrored
in
the
collective
voice
from
the
entire
exhibition:
one
where
the
perfunctory
act
and
assumed
view
are
both
refuted,
challenged,
and
called
into
review;
a
new
perspective
aware
of
its
entrapments,
and
optimistic
for
tomorrow,
whatever
that
vision
may
hold.
