Tanya Bonakdar Gallery is very pleased to present between the lines, a group exhibition of language- and text-based works by gallery artists. Exploring the complexity of language and its manifestations in and as art, this presentation will bring together over thirty sculptures, installations, paintings, photographs, videos and works on paper that incorporate elements of text and speech. Dissected, recombined and reconfigured into patterns, symbols, expressions and objects, language in this exhibition becomes a pliable medium and point of departure for different investigations and narratives. Elastic and permeable, the letters, words and phrases that appear in this selection of works resist assigned meanings and traditional syntax to complicate interpretations, while at the same time encouraging new ones.

A full version of the press release will be available shortly. For more information, please contact [email protected].
