Ivorypress at Art Brussels. Booth 1A-50

From 25 to 27 April Ivorypress will participate for the first time in the thirty-second edition of the contemporary art fair Art Brussels, within the Prime category, which showcases well-established galleries. Ivorypress’s stand (1A-50) will focus particularly on sculpture, through the work of different artists. Not Vital will present his work 5 Spaniards (2012) and the piece Dali Stone (2012) as well as the two-metre sculpture entitled Tongue (2012). The stand will also feature Vital’s works on paper such as My Age (2010) or Building for Jerusalem (2010).

The work of Chinese artist Ai Weiwei will also be represented with two sculptures at Ivorypress: Bubble (2008), made in porcelain, and F-Size (2011) in which the artist uses huanghuali wood to revisit traditional oriental materials to create a sphere that studies proportion and shape.

Other works by international artists, produced by Ivorypress, will also be on show, such as NotThePoint by Richard Tuttle or Olafur Eliasson’s glass artist’s book A view becomes a window, presented by Ivorypress last September.

Additionally, the stand will feature artwork by Jerónimo Elespe, who will present various recent works, and Los Carpinteros, who currently have a solo exhibition at Ivorypress’s space in Madrid. This Cuban duo will present several of their large-format watercolours, as well as the sculpture Lámpara de Mesa IV (2013), a lamp that remains static in its explosion. The gallery’s space will also have works on paper by Pedro Cabrita Reis such as The liquid sky series #3 (2011) and Large black and white flower #1 (2011). The young German artist Daniel Lergon will also present two large-format paintings at Art Brussels, created with water on pulverised copper.

Finally, in the area of photography Ivorypress will present works by the South Korean artist Bohnchang Koo, whose first exhibition in Spain took place at the gallery in 2013. Several of his photographs from the series Vessels (2005), Interiors (2003) and Portraits of Time (1998) have been selected for the occasion, showing the line of work in which Koo explores the subtleties and shapes of different white surfaces.
