SB CONTEMPORARY ART One Wall, One Work – Artist, José Seoane May 5 – June 3

Gate III, 2015 / 107x 64″

Over the summer months at SB Contemporary Art, we invite you to experience a new series of exhibitions titled, One Wall, One Work. Each month beginning in May and running until the end of August an artist has been invited to exhibit one large work of art to be featured for the month. The concept for this series stems from an interview that I had read years ago titled, The One-Picture Gallery. This museum of “one painting” is located in Penza, Russia and has been operating for over 25 years. 

“The Museum of One Painting is a state museum, located in Penza, Russia. It is a unique museum, which does not have analogies anywhere in the world. Its peculiarity is that it does not have a permanent exposition and that it only shows one painting. The museum contains only one hall, which introduces only one painting that is usually of great cultural significance. Before visitors can familiarize themselves with the painting, they watch a 45-minute film, describing the peculiarities of the exhibit, its history and the biography of the painter. During 25 years it has been visited by more than 400,000 people.”  http://www. russianmuseums.info/M1574

For the month of May, Artist José Seoane’s work will be featured.
