Art : Concept is pleased to present Whitney Bedford’s fifth solo exhibition at the gallery.
The artist’s latest series brings together what she calls Vedute , a series of landscape paintings inspired by late nineteenth and early twentieth century masters – from Degas to Sérusier, Klimt or Van Gogh. As with her paintings of shipwrecks, icebergs, and rainforests, the California-based artist reappropriates this historical legacy and uses it as references for her autobiographical landscapes, which work as contemporary allegories of social and environmental experiences.
