Group exhibition at TBD, New York Curated by Amir Shariat 13.11. – 20.12.2014
“Talk Like Sex” is a juxtaposition of artists who have been active in the U.S. and Europe since 1950, dealing with the texture of the canvas/ceramic as opposed to drawing the viewer’s attention to the quality of the actual painting.
