Gillick, Liam | Agriculture, Dentistry, Anarchy..., 2011 — available on Composition Gallery

Portfolio of 6 silkscreens

Liam Gillick’s Agriculture, Dentistry, Anarchy… from 2011 is a portfolio of six silkscreens that explore the intersection of art with various disciplines. Each print in the series features the phrase “art &” followed by a different field—agriculture, anarchy, chemistry, dentistry, fishing, and plumbing—set against vibrant colored backgrounds with abstracted bookshelf-like graphics. The structure suggests a modular framework, highlighting the adaptability and interconnectedness of art with diverse areas of human activity. Gillick’s work challenges the boundaries between fields, provoking thought on how art informs, critiques, and coexists with both scientific and practical domains in society.

Liam Gillick (United Kingdom, 1964) is a British artist whose work spans installation, sculpture, and writing. He explores the aesthetics of the constructed world and examines ideological control systems that have emerged with globalization and neoliberalism. Gillick's minimalist abstractions often critique modernist legacies in architecture and design.

As an artist, it's been clear that the price of art has nothing to do with you, it has to do with an idea of what the market will tolerate.
- Liam Gillick

Conceptual artist Liam Gillick is renowned for his multi-media installations and his work within the sphere of Relational Art. Highly driven by his exploration of social constructs, Gillick is notable for his use of materials that pertain to political, social and economic systems – Plexiglass and aluminium have been used by Gillick, both as a nod to minimalism and as an example of the materials used in corporate signage and riot shields; As You Approach The Edge Of Town The Lights Are No Softer Than They Were In The Centre is perhaps one of his most notable installations of this kind. Alongside artists such as Angela Bulloch and Damien Hirst, Gillick was a member of the Young British Artists movement; his work has spanned across sculpture, installation, writing and graphic design – such was his success, Gillick was asked to commission a number of works for the Home Office building, a department of the United Kingdom government.

What is abstract art?

Abstract art uses form, shape, line, and color to create a visual experience without attempting to represent external reality. The composition exists independently of the world's visual references, focusing on expressing ideas and emotions through non-representational means.
