William Farr's 'Attachment' at Palazzo Cramer in Milan
British painter William Farr (b. 1992) presents 'Attachment,' his second solo show, at Palazzo Cramer in Milan, following his first solo exhibition in London 150 days prior. The exhibition features fourteen new oil-on-linen abstract works, all titled 'Attachment' with sequential numbers, reflecting his methodical studio practice. The paintings, mostly small to medium, use translucent color fields in greens, violets, reds, and whites, evoking the Color Field tradition, particularly Ronnie Landfield. Farr aims to balance instinct and discipline, creating works that function as sensory portals rather than mere images. In the final room, three large canvases are suspended on supports in the center, with sub-audible speakers on their backs emitting frequencies to enhance the immersive experience. The artist, a recent Royal College of Art graduate, lives and works in London.
