Andrew Salgado: Natureboy

Andrew Salgado Beers London

Andrew Salgado’s newest body of work, ‘Nature Boy’, is a collection of originally unrelated paintings that – together – began to take on a life of their own. The series is titled after Nat King Cole’s ‘Nature Boy’, where the narrator recounts meeting a mysterious visitor who tells him about love. Salgado insists that like the so-called ‘accidental’ paintings – the exhibition itself should also feel transient and temporary, therefore the show will open on a Friday and run for three days only. Salgado, who typically plays with spectacle and presentation in his exhibitions, (releasing 500 live butterflies at one previous opening; or installing an artificial beach with 8-metre projection of the ocean in another), promises another such theatrical flourish for this show. The show also features the artist’s first-ever non-representational paintings.
