Event Description

GEO MORPH:
NEW CURRENTS IN GEOMETRIC AND BIOMORPHIC ABSTRACTION
September 25-Nov. 15, 2009; Reception: October 9, 7-9 PM

This works-on-paper show specializing, in geometric and biomorphic abstraction, draws from two contemporary trends. One, rooted in architecture, combines surrealism with drafting and illustration. The other, expanding on historical styles of non-objective abstraction, employs collage, geometry, gesture and pencil drawing to describe organic and otherworldly forms, using landscape, symbols, topography and mapping as jumping-off points for reformulations of pictorial and psychic space.. Work by artists Robin Hill, Val Britton, Darren Waterston, Julia Couzens, Joan Moment, Hearne Pardee, and Ellen Van Fleet, among others, is included.
