Bosse & Baum is pleased to present Kneaded, an exhibition of new paintings and wall murals by the Greek artist Kostas Sklavenitis. This is the artist’s first exhibition with Bosse & Baum, and in London. In this body of work Sklavenitis investigates the social significance and symbolism of bread. The production, sale, and sharing of bread forms a key narrative and symbolic element, which results in highly emotive works that evoke comparisons with both prehistoric cave drawings and modernist abstraction, giving the paintings a sense of historicity and timelessness. The worlds that the artist creates are bright, filled with light and movement, with figures overlapping and conjoining, as their lives are impacted by the various processes key to the production of this essential component within worldwide cultures and societies.
Wednesday – Saturday : 12pm – 6pm
