Josh Smith “OK”
Premiering a new series of paintings, monotypes, and printed works on paper, “OK” is at the crossroads between pure abstraction and an entirely new iteration of Smith’s iconic figurative vocabulary.
Briming with energy, warmth, and a sense of optimism, twelve large-scale abstract works grace the rooms of Casa Corbellini-Wasserman, guiding us through Smith’s return to abstraction.
Today, with “OK”, Smith turns to abstraction, sharing a newfound, albeit cautious sense of serenity. Taking a step back from the whirlwind of events that took the world by storm in the past two years, Smith explains, “it feels like we can now say that we are “OK” – and the universality of this term is refreshingly simple, understandable, and inclusive so it felt fitting for these new abstract works.”
