FORMAL ASPECTS: VISUAL DIALOGUE IN STRUCTURE Cape Cod Museum of Art, March 9 - May 31


These six artists have spent their lives coming to the Cape.  Their experience, made manifest in their artwork, shows the many unique ways people internalize and respond to nature, and to this specific landscape.  

.
Light, reflection, and space are metaphors that could easily describe the unique beauty of the Cape, but are also part of the language utilized in painting. Reflection in particular, could describe the mindset of the artist at work.  I hope to begin a community discussion regarding the formal aspects involved in creating a painting, and of the awareness and poetic individuation inherent to this process."
