Unstable Paintings for Anxious Interiors
Green Art Gallery, Dubai, UAE
March 17 - May 3, 2014
"(Aram's paintings') formal and thematic lines of inquiry are by no means ahistorical; their target is less the broader societal relevance of painting than its relationship to present-day political shifts, ruptures, and moments of hope. Rather than attempting contemporary history painting along the lines of, say, a David or a Gericault, the challenge they take up is whether painting can identify the crucial fault lines and potent visual symbols of our early millennial moment." -Media Farzin
