DESCRIPTION:Jun 5 - Jul 31\, 2026\nFor Oliver Beer\, born in 1985 and based
  in London and Paris\, silence isn’t silent. “The ambient sound of sil
 ence has a particular colour\, a particular harmony\, determined by the ge
 ometry and volume of the space that contains it\,” the artist told Ocula
  last year. Beer’s work eschews genre as well as the perceived confines 
 of our senses. In his “Resonance Paintings\,” audio he’s recorded wi
 thin particular spaces dictate the visual compositions themselves. Beer po
 sitions speakers beneath the canvas\, and the sonic vibrations that emanat
 e move powdered pigments accordingly\, resulting in exquisite painted tran
 slations of sound. When Beer recorded in a prehistoric cave in the Dordogn
 e\, the connections between the cave’s ancient acoustical qualities and 
 the Paleolithic paintings proved revelatory. For two months\, Thaddeus Rop
 ac London is exhibiting “The Sky in the Cave\,” a new collection of la
 rge-scale paintings\, music\, film\, and installation by Beer\, of which t
 he Dordogne experience was the basis. A limited-edition vinyl soundtrack w
 ill be available\, and on opening day Beer and Rufus Wainwright\, the musi
 cian with whom he collaborated in Dordogne\, will appear together in conve
 rsation.
