The Broadway Gallery NYC is pleased to announce the group exhibition Reverie: Air, Water, Fire, Earth. The exhibition features work by seven international artists exploring themes of space, imagination and the poetics of materiality. Inspired by Gaston Bachelard’s writings on the fundamentals of poetic space, the exhibition focuses on material inscriptions of excess, fissures and ruptures, as well as other diverse modes of presentation that disrupt the traditional notion of representation.
All of the artists featured tend to favor nuance, discreet places, dissonance, and symbolic displacement. Above all, the works in Reverie eschew nostalgia and spiritual platitudes in order to reference the ineffable within the materiality of existence.
