Benny Nemerofsky Ramsay : Études

23 Sep 2020-1 Jan 2021

Grand Union
Birmingham B5 5RS

Overview

Études is not an online exhibition, but instead a signpost somewhere between; an event by the artist Benny Nemerofsky Ramsay that would have, but has not, taken place; an indication of ongoing working with material and subjective intimacy; a making-public of this unfinished process. The études (studies) presented here have emerged from an ongoing preoccupation with floral & botanical matter as a material and subject for art works by Nemerofsky. This research, still in the process of unfolding, foregrounds intimate and bodily-led explorations of arrangement, juxtaposition, advance and withdrawal. Several video works are presented as études, with their presence here being an intention for a future live event, developed with curator Seán Elder for Grand Union. The works presented here have been developed through Nemerofsky’s residency at Fondation Fiminco (Romainville, FR).
