Congratulations @joseparla on the @brooklynmuseum opening with Brooklyn Abstraction, Four Artists, Four Walls 💥 This exhibition of works by Maya Hayuk, José Parlá, Kennedy Yanko, and the late Leon Polk Smith four artists with strong connections to Brooklyn-transforms the iconic architecture of the Museum's Beaux Arts Court through four distinct, visually immersive installations. "In these compositions, I am layering and scraping paint to obscure, reveal, and abstract both text and narrative into landscapes with textured gestural skies woven with a unique code of writing to reveal a new horizon with a universal line. The abstracted text visually resembles underground mycelium formations, a complex and mysterious fungi communication network which references the interconnection between everything on land through a web of life." —José Parlá #BrooklynMuseum #JoseParla #ISTANBUL74
