‘The Indiscipline of Painting’ is an exhibition of abstract painters at the Tate St Ives gallery in Cornwall, celebrated for its association with avant-garde artists including Ben Nicholson, Barbara Hepworth, Naum Garbo and Peter Lanyon who gave the small fishing village its international reputation. The show includes work from 49 international artists from the 1960s to the present day and features paintings by Andy Warhol, Gerhard Richter and Bridget Riley, as well as contemporary artists such as Jeremy Moon and Tomma Abts, who won the Turner Prize in 2006. The painter, Daniel Sturgis, who conceived the idea for this retrospective, wanted to explore the continuing legacy of abstract painting and how it has changed and evolved over the decades as new generations have embraced and reinvented the language of abstraction. He collaborated with Sarah Shalgosky, curator of the Mead Gallery at the Warwick Arts Centre where the exhibition is now on show. Here, Martin Clark, Artistic Director of Tate St Ives, takes HiBROW on a guided tour of the exhibition before opening the doors to the public.
