This work is included in ‘Boundless’ on view at the new Hollis Taggart Downtown location until June 21. Featuring the work of ten artists whose compositions embrace the limitless vocabulary of abstraction, Boundless is a meditation on freedom of form, gesture, and perception. Curated by Paul Efstathiou, Director of Hollis Taggart Downtown, the exhibition will showcase the work of gallery artists, André Hemer, Dana James, and Osamu Kobayashi as well as Elizabeth Abel, Chellis Baird, Katherine Boxall, Joanne Greenbaum, Margaux Ogden, Matt Phillips, and Kelly Worman. Congrats to @paulefstathiou @eleanorflatow @hollis.taggart for the expansion! @hollistaggartdowntown @hollistaggart

Installation views from ‘Moving Pictures’ at Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery, West Palm Beach. On view until September 13, 2025.

“Grounded in his personal archive of plein-air digital recordings of flowers, ferns and skies, Hemer’s paintings are thriving Baroque worlds, informed by a shapeshifting process that moves between traditional painterly approaches and algorithmic and digital translations.

These paintings embrace the space between the real and the imagined; capturing lush floral landscapes across locations in Sicily, Côte d’Azur, and Madrid, that are then amalgamated with the false naturalism of forms that have been ‘dreamt’ by custom built generative AI tools. The resulting paintings are akin to moving pictures, each painting representing a frame in motion between these two worlds.”

COMING SOON! André Hemer’s salon exhibition at our West Palm Beach Gallery previews on the 22nd of May!

André Hemer (b. 1981, New Zealand) maintains an artistic practice which explores the intersections between digital media and painting. He received his PhD in Painting from the Sydney College of the Arts, University of Sydney, Australia in 2015 and his MA from the University of Canterbury, New Zealand in 2006, including a Postgraduate Research Residency at the Royal College of Art, London (2006). His work embraces and reveals the transformations and transactions that occur between the contemporary digital image and the traditional painted object. He has exhibited widely and is represented internationally by Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery; LUIS DE JESUS LOS ANGELES in the United States; Yavuz Gallery in South-East Asia; Gow Langsford Gallery in Auckland, New Zealand and Bartley and Company in Wellington, New Zealand.

Artist spotlight for our upcoming exhibition:
A Third Hand
24 April - 28 May

Andre Hemer | b. 1981

Using the physical as a departure point (paint, sculpture, natural materials), Hemer then creates his own compositions using various digital processes involving AI, computational modelling and generative techniques. Hemer explores the merging of human perception with technological visuality, transporting the viewer in a realm that feels both familiar and unfamiliar.

For further information and enquiries please contact the gallery info@hurstcontemporary.com or visit our website www.hurstcontemporary.com

𝓣𝓮𝓬𝓱𝓷𝓸 𝓓𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓶𝓲𝓷𝓰 at Ames Yavuz @amesyavuz was conceptualised in conjunction with architect Gakkú Jumaniyasova. A long form conversation took place between us in August of which an edited interview was published to illuminate the processes and concepts behind the new body of work. An extract from the conversation below:

GJ: So, the beginning of your process is always very physical. You start from things that physically exist, and take data out of them. Through photogrammetry and tools that extrapolate the volume of an object, you’re making its digital twin. It then goes through different digital processes that involve AI, computational modelling, generative modelling. And finally, it becomes a physical, painted work.

AH: It’s really important to note that there is never really an end form to anything. The form is something that can be recirculated back into the process, it’s cyclical. I think the big sea-change of the last ten to twenty years in artistic and visual media is that the hierarchy of the original form has really been diminished and exploded. It’s the reason that I like painting; it has these basic parameters that are always known and understood. You can refer to painting as a postcard of the moment of perception of that particular idea or image.
