For the better part of four years, Chair of Foundation Caleb Taylor’s practice has grown to engage dialogues that shift abstract form away from pure distillation and focus on its relationships to constructed environments, history of place, and dynamics connected to ways of seeing. Open Plan is Caleb Taylor’s first solo exhibition with Haw Contemporary. Occupying the entirety of the Stockyards ground floor, this exhibition presents paintings, photographic collages, and sculptures that investigate the complex dualities of images and objects, representation and abstraction, perception and understanding, fact and fiction, building and rebuilding. Modernist architects broke away from traditional designs and construction methods, favoring approaches offering a continuity and liberation of physical space. Identified by Le Corbusier as one of his ‘Five Points of Architecture’, an open plan references interior spaces free of sub-dividing walls. His principles shifted the aesthetic vernacular and usability of architecture to include clear perspectives on site-specificity. The notion of spatial response is ever-present in Taylor’s installation. Entering each gallery, viewers encounter works that are distinct in their content and are informing and sampling one another. The layout of the exhibition is both structurally unified and fractally unfolding, underlining the idea that all manners of art-making are an act of construction. Please join us…
