George Rouy explores the human body as both subject and medium
Briefly

British artist George Rouy presents his first U.S. solo exhibition, 'The Bleed, Part II', at Hauser & Wirth Los Angeles, in collaboration with choreographer Sharon Eyal. This innovative project reflects how Rouy's paintings and Eyal's choreographed movements converge, creating a dynamic exploration of bodily expression and emotion. The exhibition, following an earlier one in London, showcases Rouy's evolving style, which blends abstraction with figuration to convey deeper energies beneath visual appearances. It promises to offer new insights into both Rouy's artistry and contemporary performance collaborations.
"A Rouy painting is like a frenzied flux of movement, conveying not just the physical features of bodies and faces, but also the emotion and energy beneath the surface that's invisible to the naked eye."
"The movement unfolded like a live version of Rouy's paintings, blending music, scenography, and choreography into a stunning performance."
