Richard Saltoun Gallery is pleased to debut the work of the minimal abstractionist Romany EVELEIGH in the UK with a solo booth at Frieze Masters.
Eveleigh’s work stands out for her uncompromising sign-based vocabulary rooted in a distinctly minimalist aesthetic that places painting in a philosophical dimension. Her work is situated in the radical lesbian movement of Paris and Rome in the 1970s.
The booth showcases the artist’s most important body of work, the Pages series (1972-1974), in which the repetition of cramped circles is emblematic of women's repetitive tasks in the domestic environment, as articulated by one of Italy’s most important and original philosophers of the post-war period, Giorgio Agamben.
