Bart Exposito was born in Amarillo, Texas in 1970. Exposito’s work has appeared in a number of group shows including: Game Over at Galerie Grimm/Rosenfeld in Munich; Daniel Weinberg Gallery, Los Angeles; Bill Maynes Gallery, New York; Acuna-Hansen Gallery, Los Angeles and Wake Up & Apologise at the Hayworth Gallery, Los Angeles. He has exhibited internationally at galleries such as: Studio 9, London and Galerie Fur Gegenwarstkunst, Bremen.
Bart Exposito’s geometric paintings don’t draw from utopian ideals, or a revision of abstraction, but rather the cold neutrality of graphic design. More pop than pop, his flat pantone coloured canvases celebrate the zen-like fizz of commodified nothingness. Seducing with the plastic banality of album covers or corporate logos, his work negotiates both aesthetics and its functions as cultural interface and lifestyle arbitration. Through his ultra-flat, airtight compositions he enforces the impersonal and anonymous as a comforting numbness.
Exposito is represented by Thomas Solomon Gallery in Los Angeles and Finesilver Gallery in San Antonio. He lives and works in Los Angeles.
