Keiran Brennan Hinton's Palermo Residency Yields New Paintings at Francesco Pantaleone
Keiran Brennan Hinton, a Canadian artist born in Toronto in 1992 and based in New York, presents a solo exhibition at Francesco Pantaleone Arte Contemporanea in Palermo. Titled after Alfred Hitchcock's 'Rear Window', the show results from a residency Hinton completed in autumn 2019 at Ditta Parlato in Palermo's historic center. Curated by Agata Polizzi, the exhibition features large and small canvases capturing views of the city, including Palazzo Costantino, a busy bistrot at Quattro Canti, and interior scenes referencing masterpieces like the 'Portrait of Eleonora d'Aragona' at Palazzo Abatellis. Hinton's work evokes early 20th-century American figurative painting and cinematic perspectives.
