Kristopher Benedict "Retreat"
This event has ended.
At A.M. Richard Fine Art
Media: Painting, Installation
Inspired by political and social changes in urban public life, Kristopher Benedict paintings look at the role of individuals in the contemporary city. In his first exhibition at the A.M. Richard gallery, the artist chooses to examine the changing relationship between public and private space. Each of the three rooms in the gallery contains a wall-sized painting, their presence acting as foil for the intimate and domestic scale of the gallery. The paintings themselves are full of similar disjunctions as Benedict superimposes several images into each composition. Within the same work, colors may stream from oversaturated to muted, from jarring to harmonious. The overall sensations transpiring from the Benedict paintings range from contemplative to rapturous; the tone from melodious to cacophonous.
