WHIRLWIND
April 1 - 30, 2021
On view exclusively on Artsy
Asher Grey Gallery presents Whirlwind, a group exhibition featuring a broad range of mediums and subject matter that highlight the many talents of artists Frederick Fulmer, Barbara Gothard, Jason Graves, Mary Addison Hackett, Lynda Keeler, Kathleen King, Mike McLain, Tania Jazz Mont, Gregg Ross, Robert Schwan, Alan Shaffer, Karin Skiba and Barbara Spiller.
This work was inspired by each artists' life experiences and each piece is a varied interpretation of our complex world.
Frederick Fulmer, Blue Vortex is from a new series about atmosphere and climate changes on our environment using pure pigment oil paint.
Barbara Gothard’s series Discourse Of Opposites is a nee approach differs from her more structured approach. In keeping with the focus on ‘contradictions’ and ‘what lies beyond’, she opted to work with color opposites resulting in a series of abstract digital paintings
Jason Graves created figures and landscapes illustrated as energy and dreamscape.
Mary Addison Hackett is an artist whose work is grounded in the aesthetics of everyday life. When California went into lockdown, Hackett made sense of the ensuing chaos of life during quarantine and the need for social justice by documenting the minutiae of life in detail.
Kathleen King created small collages using magazines found on curbs and in dumpsters. This discarded material is re-fashioned into intuitive combinations of image and text in a series that searches for possibilities in expression and in things that are not.
Lynda Keeler's Garden Map paintings are abstract reflections of the front yards, streetscapes and gardens she sees on her daily walks. The vibrant colors of bougainvillea, fresh cut grass, and palm trees mix with the rough texture of the street and sidewalks.
Mike McLain series is Inspired by traditional quilt designs, the work places pattern, process, and materiality in a gridded framework of optically jarring overlap.
Tania Jazz Mont paints the figures she knows. In this series she is playing with stereotypes regarding socioeconomics, gender, identity, and sexuality.
Gregg Ross works in a precise realistic style, often utilizing retro pop imagery, to create a darkly humorous narrative or statement on modern times.
Robert Schwan comments on his work The Emperor's New Clothes, “I would simply say that, I crawled from the wreckage of what was 2020 with that piece in hand.”
Alan Shaffer shares his documented photographs of artist Gary Basemen and Amir Fallah.
Karin Skiba uses a rose is a symbol of life- budding, blooming, withering. This imagery interacts with other fragile media and pictures to evoke a sense of fleeting beauty that raises your awareness of life itself.
Barbara Spiller works with encaustic paint to create these deconstructed landscape collage formations.
