Lawrence Carroll's paper works on view at Studio Trisorio in Naples
Studio Trisorio in Naples is hosting an exhibition dedicated to Lawrence Carroll's works on paper, running from December 2022. The show emphasizes the contemplative dimension of the artist's practice, with works that transcend traditional pictorial flatness. Carroll (1954-2019) used white as an expressive color, incorporating wax, fabric, and other materials into his paper pieces. The exhibition highlights the material memory of paper support through painterly stratifications, reaffirming the post-minimalist lyricism of his canvases. The curation places the works in airy relation to the gallery spaces, enhancing their physically emotional tension.
