Caryn Martin: Atmospheric Abstractions Opening
Thu Jul 31, 5:30-7:30pm
Exhibit on view Jul 31- Aug 16

As a conceptual project, it’s pretty clear: to pare landscape painting down to its essence, with only the barest hint of color and horizontality. In practice, however, Caryn Martin’s nearly monochrome, nearly abstract landscapes are deeply felt and suffused with warm light, evoking a sense of quiet contemplation as your eyes adjust to the whiteness like the reverse of a dark room at night.
