Aaron Angell - Bumpkin - Rob Tufnell - London


through November 17th 2012

Working in ceramics, wall drawings and paintings Angell’s works are at once formal and formless,carefully constructed and carelessly concluded. They are imbued with tradition and then again exploitits collapse. Drawing on the Latin root of the word compost, compositus, (literally ‘something puttogether’), he sees his works as having been developed through accretion, and then again, rot — ‘animperfect, incomplete and unscientific process’ in opposition to the distillation or ‘alchemical’ ideasexpounded in much of contemporary and Modern art.
