N. Dash's Minimalist Constructions at Fondazione Giuliani, Rome
The Fondazione Giuliani in Rome presents a solo exhibition of works by American artist N. Dash (born 1980, Miami Beach), created specifically for the foundation's spaces. Dash works across painting, sculpture, and photography, using organic materials such as adobe, natural pigments, jute, and wood. Her practice involves photographing fabric pieces, archiving them, and reusing them in silkscreen prints. The exhibition features works that blend painting and sculpture, with layered constructions that incorporate materials like graphite, string, and gesso. Dash's approach is described as minimalist, with a focus on essential elements and a narrative that intertwines personal history with the history of materials. The works are characterized by geometric landscapes, dynamic equilibria, and architectural geometries, with monochromatic backgrounds interrupted by color accents, textures, and overlays. The exhibition runs at Fondazione Giuliani in Rome.
