A curation by Natalie Slater, Curator at Singulart - 'The Persistence of Blue' is a curation bringing together a diverse range of artists—painters, photographers, sculptors, and mixed-media voices—who probe the enduring resonance of blue. From the intensity of Klein Blue to the depth of cobalt and ultramarine, the works here reveal how this singular hue persists across time, genre, and gesture.
Some artists dissolve form into atmospheric washes, where blue hovers like a memory or breath. Others employ bold mark-making, repetition, or sculptural surface to render blue as weight, presence, and force. Through abstraction, figuration, and material experiment, each interpretation captures a different emotional register—serenity, melancholy, transcendence—yet all return to blue’s insistence as both subject and symbol.
In this curation, blue is not static but continually reimagined: an echo of art-historical lineage, a pulse of contemporary vision, and a reminder of the color’s inexhaustible capacity to transform perception.
