Chris Churchill Exhibition
Franklin Parrasch Gallery
This event has ended.
The second solo exhibition of new work by Chris Churchill at the gallery includes large-scale paintings, artist books and drawings. Churchill further references mountainscape imagery. His use of both color and line involve hallucinatory effects that subtly mix abstraction with representation, and fluidity with form. Reconnaissance views and distant vistas disconnect the viewer from a sense of place or subjective attachment to terrain. By reducing the contours of his subjects to represent a perceived subterranean interior, Churchill challenges the viewer's notions of how perception is resolved.
