“Abstract but with glancing references to new technology and modular design, Bart Exposito’s paintings demonstrate that the hard-edge vernacular has always resonated with the concept of futurity, even the futuristic… Exposito’s knack for making his figures burst from the picture’s borders may seem paradoxical given his work’s neo-geo flatness, but it is in these ruptures that he develops the virtuality his paintings’ affect conveys”. (Bruce Hainley, Artforum, Summer 2002) In 2000, Exposito earned his MFA from California Institute of the Arts.
