Pace is pleased to present an exhibition of new, large-scale paintings by Pam Evelyn at its 510 West 25th Street gallery in New York.

Running from November 8 to December 21, the show, titled Frame of mind, will spotlight works created by the artist during her recent residency in Cornwall, England. Marking Evelyn’s first-ever solo exhibition in the United States, this presentation will be accompanied by a new catalog from Pace Publishing, featuring an essay by art historian and curator Yuval Etgar.

Evelyn, who lives and works in London, is known for her expansive, abstract canvases that are densely layered, richly textured meditations on nature, the body, and materiality. Through her intuitive approach, the artist brings her complex compositions to life. Working in an array of scales and multi-panel formats, she imbues her paintings with emotional and psychological resonances, creating works that reflect the landscapes and textures of her inner world. She joined Pace’s program in 2023, and her works can be found in the collections of the Zabludowicz Collection in the English capital and the Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo in Turin, Italy.

In Frame of mind, Evelyn’s first solo show in New York, she will present nine paintings—including four monumental diptychs measuring some 16 feet wide—that she made this year in Cornwall. Physically removed from London’s frenetic energy, she spent several months completely alone with her work in an intense but also meditative state of focus. For Evelyn, time seemed to slow down during this period of isolation, and the paintings she produced simultaneously over the last year are fundamentally linked while entirely idiosyncratic. She built up these works as part of a rigorous physical process of layering and scraping paint and rearticulating forms, approaching each painting as a malleable, living being with no preordained contents or conclusion.
