Two parallel solo shows at the Sharjah Art Museum bring contemporary artists Angela Bulloch and Maria Zerres together under one title, framed by the notion of entropy. Likewise, the publication takes the form of two separate but related exhibition catalogs, each leading toward the books center. Entropy appears in fields such as physics or probability theory but in contemporary art, entropy refers to representations of order, disorder and information, and their homogeneity. Entropy is suggested in both artists work in different ways. Bullochs sculptures, installations and sound works reveal her long interest in systems, patterns and rules defining the creative territory between mathematics and aesthetics. Zerress paintings explore the aesthetic languages of abstraction and figuration by emphasizing the blank space between painted areas. Texts by Manal Ataya, Lotte Everts, Amira Gad, Vanessa Joan Mu'ller, Brigitte Schenk and Corinna Thierolf.
