Sunday, Lisbon/London-based artist Bruno Pacheco’s first solo exhibition in the USA, explores his interest in painting and its histories. The exhibition consists entirely of paintings on paper. Pacheco’s process involves the constant repetition of an image and its continuous alteration. This repetition implies a permanent search for a point of neutrality in the painting's plan. The subject of the picture and painting are inseparable. Bruno’s paintings are often based on found imagery from the internet and his personal photographs. Selected subject matters range from patterned blankets to mysterious landscapes.
