New York-based artist collective, The Bruce High Quality Foundation, presents 'Pearls', at Pippy Houldsworth Gallery, London, on view from February 10 to March 11, 2017 . The exhibition will feature images of exemplary works of the Baroque style. Baroque, from the Portuguese borroco, meaning "a rough or imperfect pearl," characterises a stylistic turn, quite pronounced at the turn of the 17th century, away from the order of the Renaissance and toward theatrical narrative. Caravaggio's chiaroscuro, Rubens' saturated colour and sweeping lines, and Poussin's narrativised landscape space all interfere with static geometric hierarchies to lead a viewer through the emotional experience of a story. 'Pearls' will feature works by these three masters. The exhibition is on view at Pippy Houldsworth Gallery, 6 Heddon Street, London W1B 4BT.
