Five Paintings 2013-2015 is Wade Guyton's first exhibition in a French museum. It is based on the painting Untitled (2013), which entered the collections of the Musée d'Art Moderne in 2022, thanks to a special donation.

Created between 2013 and 2015, the five paintings are from a period during which Guyton made a variety of black paintings. Four of them were conceived from a single Photoshop file composed exclusively of black: the printed image competes with white, its reserve space. This creates an ambiguous relationship between figure and background and, more broadly, between the works and the wall on which they are hung. The porosity of the boundaries creates a tension between abstraction and figuration that should allow each painting to find the right form.

The fifth canvas in this body of works, never exhibited before, extends this tension by juxtaposing two exhibition views on which there is a mise en abyme of the two monumental paintings presented here.
