Antiquity

Come along to the exhibition of the London-based Chilean artist, Pato Bosich, who presents his most recent body of mixed media work: Antiquity.

Developed over a period of over five years, the results are a richly, dense, playful and exciting series of drawings inspired by the British Museum's collections of Mesoamerican, Greek, Mesopotamian and other antiquities. Bosich's "Antiquity" is rooted in the search of the fragmentary. The works explore how antiquity discloses the multiple prmiordial worlds, and the artist's intention is to piece together the past, present and future into a coherent whole.

The artist's use of the unconventional combination of ink and wine has uncanny parallels with a poem by the 13th century mystic, Abraham Abulafia, often cited by the artist, about perceiving our soul as blood and our spirit as ink, and that understanding the battle that rages between them is our key to self-knowledge.

All of the works are available to buy directly online on the McCaslin website. Visits can be made individually or as small groups with the artist. Please call if you have any questions Tel: 0203-151-8810 or email: claire@mccaslinartadvisory.com
