Exhibition Information
Gana Art Nineone is pleased to present Brooklyn-based artist Aaron Johnson’s first solo exhibition 《Green Dreamer》 in South Korea. Aaron creates an originative set of paintings based on the smudges and mysterious color of absorbed dye by applying watery acrylic paint onto a wet canvas. His creative process is based on the Color-Field Painting method, which is one of the representative techniques of abstract expressionism, and his unique painting is created by applying his aesthetics to the process. He builds layers of paint on canvas by repeating the process, experimenting with the fluidity of the material itself and revealing it in a simple form with a minimum amount of touches. As such, the autonomous and conflicting forms created by the properties of media leads to a hallucinatory atmosphere in his work. Aaron considers imaginary characters in his dreamlike work as living beings in another world and gives each of them a matching name. Through this, visitors can visually experience the mysterious and transcendent world that Aaron unravels. The exhibition exclusively consists of his new series of works created for the occasion, and Gana Art aims to provide a visual experience of the mysterious and transcendent world that the artist unravels where the visitors can spend the end of the year, enjoying his fantasy-like paintings.
