NYAB Event - Wendy Gittler "Unmoorings – Displacement in Time & Space"

This event has ended.
At First Street Gallery
Media: Painting

For years, I have been watching the kaleidoscopic and chameleon face of nature and despaired of ever catching its infinite details. Instead, I chose an alternate route where forms become gestural and iconic and likewise, places are transformed and condensed. These places that were once in specific locations have now become embedded in a temporal-spatial discontinuity similar to that of theater, cinema, and choreographic sequences.

The exception in this exhibit is a diary of revisited Rome and Southern Italy after twenty years absence. These gouaches are part perception, invention, and memory.
