WOW x WOW Gallery proudly presents ‘WOW² (Volume V)’, which opens on wowxwow.com at 7pm BST on 3rd September and will run until 24th September. WOW² (Volume IV) will be the fifth exhibition hosted by WOW x WOW in celebration of square artworks.
The square format provides a truly unique set of opportunities for the visual artist. With its equal sides and symmetrical properties, it harnesses a distinctive power when it comes to balance and harmony. The traditional compositional ‘rule of thirds’ really goes out the window when working within a square, which creates a very liberating and refreshing sense of freedom. The shape also highlights and strengthens simplified compositions. Negative spaces take on a heightened impact. The square can even be rotated 45 degrees onto its corner, to provide a striking new dynamic and open up a whole host of fresh creative possibilities.
As always, we’d really appreciate you spreading the word to anyone that you think might be interested in the exhibition. We’re super excited about the work we’ve received for WOW² (Volume V), and we hope that you enjoy the show!
