Staan Nader, Staan Terug! (Come Closer, Get Away)
Some Fairly Large Drawings and Rather Small Sculptures by David Page
November 30, 2009 – January 29, 2010
Reception: December 3, 6 – 8 p.m., Gallery
Art Talk and Closing Party: January 29, 5 p.m.
David Page is an artist well-known for making common objects monumental in both size and meaning. By using steel, aluminum, leather and other materials, and manipulating scale Page skillfully offers the semblance of utility and the viewer’s perception of power, strength and meaning is altered. Once again Page skews reality, this time with large dramatic drawings and meticulously elegant sculptures. Staan nader, staan terug! Come Closer, Get Away!
A discussion with the artist and a closing party to be held at 5 p.m. January 29.
