Jeff Perrott "Random Walks in Endless Fields"
Morgan Lehman Gallery
This event has ended.
Entitled Random Walks in Endless Fields, the show is the artist's third solo exhibition at the gallery, and the first to feature his recently developed body of stochastic system-driven oil paintings.
Random Walks in Endless Fields both describes the artist's non-deterministic process; a continuous one-inch thick line painted by a random process in an unbroken picture plane – as well as the underlying sense of vastness and play at the core of this diverse and versatile artist's oeuvre.
The new work represents a return to the system-based painting practice that established Perrott's reputation in the mid 90s, while it expands that investigation into the chance, uncertainty, contingency, and open-endedness inherent in the random walk process.
