Matthew Chambers - Untitled - New York



October 22 – December 12, 2010

UNTITLED is rather pleased to announce its first-ever solo exhibition, a suite of brand new paintings by Matthew Chambers. The exhibition continues the artist’s longstanding distillation and regurgitation of the act of painting as filtered through his own visual memory. Comprised of a selection of thirty-six canvases all measuring eight by four feet, hung virtually edge-to-edge, the exhibition includes representational, abstract, and ripped “strip” paintings. In addition, two handmade books of study drawings for the paintings, one abstract, the other representational, will be exhibited publicly for the first time. These two books, bound by the artist’s mother, are an idiosyncratic key to Chambers' practice, each filled with the geometry and purloined images that make up his vast visual language.
