Wendy White’s works are in many ways a permanent exploration and expansion of the possibilities of traditional canvas painting. On the one hand, this concerns the materials she uses, such as Plexiglas panes and frames made especially for the artist from PVC, carpets or wood. On the other hand, the artist chooses forms of presentation that deviate from classical forms. She leans her paintings directly against the wall and thus permanently crosses the boundaries between painting and sculpture. At the current Armory Show, she covered her paintings with curtains for days and only let them appear publicly to the audience in the course of the fair. For her, the frame is by no means limited to a rectangle, but picks up the idea of the "shape canvas" from the American tradition. Rather, her works stand as objects in space and thus create immediate access to the visitor, similar to spatial installations or multimedia arrangements.  In many cases, she paints with an airbrush, which creates an association and proximity to sprayed graffiti but with greatly expanded possibilities.
In terms of content, the artist is at home in current social and political issues. She understands her themes as an "exactly-now-in-the-cultural-moment" and thus always as a time-critical contribution in the current discourse. Examples of this engagement with the present are her contributions to gender relations and the different established positions of power between men and women.
As far as the corona pandemic allows, the exhibition will be curated on-site by the artist herself. Some works will be created on-site to give the artist every opportunity for up-to-dateness. A catalogue will be published to accompany the exhibition.
