42 Carlton Place

The inaugural exhibition at 42 Carlton Place mixed contemporary paintings with ones from different periods, ranging back through the twentieth century. Juxtaposing artists of different degrees of fame and recognition, and including some anonymous works, the exhibition featured a single painting by each artist and builds up to a kind of anti-manifesto; an exploratory and partial working definition of painting as an art form.
