‘What starts as abstraction in Quarles’ work always retains something of its abstractness; a resistance to the desire, on the part of both the artist and the beholder, to bend the mark toward the purpose of image-making. It’s this resistance, however, that makes the paintings so pleasurable to be with – and resistance becomes a medium for ludic mischief’ – Barry Schwabsky
Published on the occasion of the exhibition, Pilar Corrias is pleased to present a booklet with new writing by Barry Schwabsky and an interview with the artist and Craig Burnett. Designed by Galicheva–Gahlen.
