Annotation
Description <p>Tami Amit&rsquo;s painterly universe relates to Abstract Expressionism, Colour Field painting, and graffiti art, but from the standpoint of Pop Art. Her form of Abstract Expressionism can be regarded as post-Pop. The palette she applies is phosphorous and ice-creamy, governed by pastels and colours that are characteristic to a post-natural, extremely artificial and saturated way of life. Even when she uses colours ascribable to natural elements, she distorts the possibility of a direct reference to the world in order to produce exploding chromatic configurations that amount to hallucinatory topographies of dripping paint. Nevertheless, Amit&rsquo;s painterly universe offers a sort of an equivalent to nature, since it is anti-hierarchical and all about boundlessness and all-over-ness, amplifying the thin, and not necessarily clear line distinguishing purpose from purposelessness, control from lack of control.<br />&mdash; Ory Dessau<br />Tami Amit&rsquo;s monograph, carrying the enigmatic title Last Night I Met Snow White, compiles reproductions of her recent work on paper and canvas. Amit&rsquo;s practice is a particular mode of action painting which processes childhood memories and issues of self identity and expression. This is her first monograph as a painter.</p>
