'Mixing It Up: Painting Today' brings together 31 painters whose works
combine elements from varied traditions, genres, image sources and
formal approaches. Exploiting their medium's potential for ambiguity and
for creating correspondences between seemingly unrelated elements, these
artists make the case that painting may be the most relevant
'technology' for exploring our complex, image-saturated present. This
publication features an essay by Ralph Rugoff and original texts by
Jeremy Atherton Lin, Martha Barratt, Ben Eastham, Emily LaBarge, Rosanna
Mclaughlin, Rianna Jade Parker and Attillah Springer. Artists include -
Hurvin Anderson, Alvaro Barrington, Peter Doig, Lubaina Himid, Rachel
Jones, Allison Katz, Matthew Krishanu, Oscar Murillo, and Sophie von
Hellermann, among others. Published on the occasion of the exhibition,
'Mixing It Up: Painting Today' at Hayward Gallery, London (9 September -
12 December 2021)
