Elise Ansel: 'yes, I Said Yes'

Exhibition dates: 1 - 18 October 2019
Private View: Thursday, 3 October, 6 - 8:30pm


Cadogan Contemporary is delighted to present yes I said Yes, a solo exhibition featuring new works by acclaimed American artist Elise Ansel.

Central to Ansel’s project is her practice of translating Old Master paintings into a contemporary pictorial language through the lens of feminine subjectivity. She uses an idiom of energetic gestural abstraction to mine art historical imagery for colour and narrative structure, abstracting and interrupting the representational content, in order to excavate and transform meanings and messages embedded in the works from which her paintings spring.
