Chris Rivers: Universal

20 August - 12 October 2024

“The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself” - Carl Sagan

 

Pontone Gallery is proud to present a new exhibition by British painter, Chris Rivers. ‘Universal’ consists of a suite of sixteen paintings, four of which are of the elements: earth, fire, water and air; and twelve depict the individual signs of the zodiac. The artist presents us with his compendium of the cosmos, each image a whirlpool of sumptuous colour, fluid gesture and corporeal paint.
