Paulo Monteiro
An exhibition of works by leading Brazilian contemporary artist Paulo Monteiro. This marks the artist’s third solo presentation in Japan in two years since his previous showing at Misako & Rosen in 2020. From paintings comprised of vivid color planes of tones such as pink, orange, blue and yellow in which the paint is pushed or layered in places to highlight its very materiality, to sculptures where viscous clay slabs are splayed open, dissected, and squeezed into animated forms before being cast in bronze or aluminum, Monteiro creates paintings, drawings, and sculptures in a minimalistic yet richly expressive manner. In his exhibitions, all the works are presented so as to resonate with one another while maintaining a certain connection by means of the exquisite sense of distance between them.
“Colors Without a Place” refers to multiple combinations between colors. For example, the same red can be perceived very differently when juxtaposed with a green or a blue. In Monteiro’s new works, colors come to emerge in a free and lively manner together with place, movement, and time. From a slight distance, up-close, or peering from the side, visitors are invited to explore new ways of viewing the works while making exciting discoveries by engaging with them from a variety of angles and perspectives.
