About the Item

Joseph Kosuth, father of conceptual art, once famously said: “Works of art that try to tell us something about the world are bound to fail (…)The absence of reality in art is exactly art’s reality”. This maxim, which is nothing if not radical, seems to govern the work of Rosa Brun, one of the most renowned artists in her native Spain. Rosa Brun’s creations are preoccupied above all with the effect of colour on the spectator, through a sheer release of aesthetic enjoyment. Her work meanders from painting to sculpture (and back again) freely, without boundaries or constraints. In fact, there is in what Brun does a constant fusion, tension, or even dissolution between these two media, creating a synergy that culminates in artistic works of visual and geometric abstraction. Brun’s work is extraordinarily inward-looking, almost withdrawn, concerned as it is with exploring the effects of her artistic creations on the senses (pigmentation, volume, light, shade, etc.). But if her work is muted, it is visually alive, capable of activating all of our senses as we contemplate the pieces before us. Through her art, Brun engages in a dialogue with space and architecture, and her work almost levitates above ground.

Kosso Eloul (1920-1995) is one of our favorite sculptors and an important contributor to public art in Toronto. In addition to the numerous public sculptures in Toronto by Eloul, his works can be found in many other prominent open spaces around the world, from California to Israel. Most familiar with Eloul associate his work with his signature forms; large brushed aluminum (or steel) angled rectangles. However his earlier work was realized in stone. This fine sculpture, a form that is revisited and eventually created in metal, is made of Jerusalem Stone...
