Carl Hammoud 2007

Reception: October 11, 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Carl Hammoud

Bellwether

134 10th Ave
Bellwether is proud to present the first US gallery exhibition of Carl Hammoud’s eerie depopulated urban interiors. Hammoud’s oil on linen paintings are timeless, placeless views of surreal office spaces that seem to have just been ransacked and abandoned. Papers still fly, chairs tip, and light creeps across the composition in spaces curiously devoid of the text and logos now so integral to our urban landscape. Hammoud deftly paints the detritus of mindless office work, conveying a curious stillness—as though his worlds are outside the impact of time—leaving the viewer apprehensive at the source of the scenes’ discord.

Carl Hammoud is represented by Galleri Magnus Karlsson, Stockholm, Sweden. His work is in the collections of the Moderna Museet, Stockholm, Sweden, Malmö Konstmuseum, Malmö, Sweden and the Sammlung Frider Burda, Baden-Baden, Germany. Hammoud received his MFA from the Valand Academy of Fine Arts, Gothenburg, Sweden, in 2004.
