WOW x WOW presents 'WOW² (Volume III)', a group show of square artworks by over 30 incredible international artists.
The square format provides a truly unique set of opportunities for the visual artist. With its equal sides and symmetrical properties, it harnesses a distinctive power when it comes to balance and harmony. The traditional compositional ‘rule of thirds’ really goes out the window when working within a square, which creates a very liberating and refreshing sense of freedom. The shape also highlights and strengthens simplified compositions. Negative spaces take on a heightened impact. The square can even be rotated 45 degrees onto its corner, to provide a striking new dynamic and open up a whole host of fresh creative possibilities.
The online exhibition opens Friday September 6 at 7pm UK on the WOW x WOW website and will be on view until September 27 2019.
