Harriet Shorr "Objects of Use to Me"
Masters & Pelavin
This event has ended.
Shorr has always incorporated objects into table top landscapes. While her earlier work was closely aligned with color field painting, using lush areas of almost flat color, her recent work extends her masterly use of color as her allegorical subject matter adds multiple layers of fascination and play. The exhibition title, the largest painting in the exhibition, and Shorr's current body of work were inspired by the Matisse photograph of his studio collection captioned “Objects which have been of use to me nearly all my life.” Shorr, too has a studio collection that has been of great use to her.
