“Metal” is the name chosen by Sean Scully for his exhibition at Galerie Lelong.
He invites us to see the support hidden under the painting, exposing this material that reflects light, the central feature of his work. Sean Scully uses steel for his sculptures, aluminium and copper for his paintings. On these metals, the paint slides, the brush moves faster than on a canvas and the work as a whole becomes more animated. Often the support is visible and the light it reflects becomes another colour in the composition.
