If you got worried that we forgot about the painting medium, check out the works of the young artist Mary Ramsden , number nine on our list. The placing of the artist is by no means an indication of the quality of her works. A recent Royal Academy School graduate, Ramsden already has the Tate Britain as one of the venues where her abstract paintings where presented.

Refusing any reference readings, the artist creates painted objects whose compositional unity belies the complexity of their making. We have decided to finish off the list with yet another artist of the younger generation. The British artist Ed Fornieles , similarly to the artist that opened our list today, investigates the space and the real subject in relation to the Internet image and the Internet reality. His latest project sees him replacing himself with the animated fox named Ed.

The artist uses his work to comment upon the loss of identity and at the same time with his paintings references in his title the values of the past. Questioning the world around him, Fornieles attempts to understand the dominance of technology. Ed Fornieles — Modern Family, Art News Angie Kordic. Art Exhibitions Elena Martinique.
