I will be part of RIZOOM — a group exhibition bringing together artists in a moment of becoming.
I will present three works, not as separate pieces, but as one movement:
a surface that remembers
a body learning to unfold
a field of small lights
Together, they explore what happens before something becomes visible.

John Stack (I'm so proud of my brother!) Solo Art Exhibition (after 14 years working on this oeuvre)
Irish Architectural Archive until 23rd Feb
11 x 5 cities
A series of 55 paintings by John Stack based on Italo Calvino’s Invisible Cities.
Italo Calvino’s Invisible Cities (1974) concerns Marco Polo, the thirteenth-century Venetian explorer, merchant and write who wished to trade with the Great Eastern Empire of the Kublai Khan. Polo was granted permission on condition that he describe, on each visit to Khan’s cities, what he had seen. The novel contains descriptions of 55 cities with 11 types. We are left to wonder if, in fact, they are all descriptions of the same city, Venice.
Starting with the white names of the cities on a white background, architect and artist John Stack has devised a graphic scheme where all the cities are arranged to form a single whole, reflecting on the novel and the 5 cities John himself has lived in.
