[no title] 1973

Curator: This work, an untitled print by David Leverett, now residing in the Tate Collections, is a fascinating example of abstract expression. It's roughly 600 by 900 millimeters. Editor: Wow, it feels like looking into a dense thicket, a visual representation of pure, untamed energy. Curator: Leverett's mark-making really draws you in. It seems the interplay between those cool blues and earthy reds creates a sense of depth. Editor: It almost vibrates, doesn't it? Like static electricity, or the hum of a hidden frequency. It's fascinating that such chaos can feel so… contained. Curator: Well, perhaps that containment is a reflection of the grid that seems to structure it, a visual metaphor for the tension between order and chaos that plays out across the surface. Editor: Right, like something barely contained by the systems it is built into. There's a freedom there, a sense of something untamed, ready to burst forth. Curator: Ultimately, I think Leverett wants us to experience that tension, to feel the exhilarating edge between control and release. Editor: Beautifully put. It leaves you feeling almost breathless.
