DOCU-PRESS 4: Carla Scott Fullerton

period: 10.10.2014 → 05.12.2014

Carla Scott Fullerton is a young Scottish sculptor. Intrigued by building materials and architectural forms, she makes abstract compositions that explore the empty space on paper sheets or in the exhibition hall. Fullerton started working with print media after sculpting with steel plates. At a certain moment these plates ended up, almost coincidentally, under an etching press. The result of this experiment was the beginning of a new era in Fullertons oeuvre. Carla Scott Fullerton was invited by Frans Masereel Centrum to make new works during a residency in September this year. We are proud to present these new works to you in DOCU-PRESS 4 Carla Scott Fullerton.

DOCU-PRESS

For the first time in its history, Frans Masereel Centrum invites artists to reside at the centre and make new work in the workshop. During the stay the experiment is central. The artist is being challenged to critically interrogate the printing techniques and place them in relation to his/her own artistic work. It’s a concrete research into the value of graphic techniques for the artistic process, and into the possibilities offered by new printing techniques to translate content-related and thematical questions.

DOCU-PRESS has an explicit documentary nature. The presentation shows the different layers of the creation process and connects different art disciplines. This review on a residency shows what the graphic techniques mean to the artist, and what impulses they can give to an artistic oeuvre. After Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven, Jan Kempenaers and Gowara Minsa, we welcome the Scottish Carla Scott Fullerton.

Opening Friday 10/10 at 8 PM
Concert Bright Entity at 9.30 PM
Open Mon-Fri, 9 AM to 5 PM
