Ann Pibal's 2013 Paintings at Lucien Terras Explore Seriality and Asymmetry
At the Lucien Terras gallery, Ann Pibal showcased two series from 2013: the RBWC group, consisting of five paintings with gold backgrounds that together form a cohesive work, and the DHWT series, which includes six standalone pieces in dark blue and brown. Pibal's small-scale acrylic works on aluminum imply larger sizes. The gold pieces stand in stark contrast to the blue and brown series. The RBWC series features a ten-inch square with concentric colored squares, while DHWT demonstrates minimal contrast in its spatial elements, as seen in DWHT 2's off-center line. Pibal's approach merges intuitive and analytical techniques, drawing inspiration from artists like Tomma Abts and Josef Albers. This exhibition was held from November 21, 2015, to January 17, 2016, at 325 Broome Street, New York City.
