Conor Thompson “Head Over Heels”
Greenpoint Terminal Gallery
This event has ended.
Greenpoint Terminal Gallery presents Head Over Heels, an exhibition of new paintings and drawings by Los Angeles-based artist Conor Thompson. Thompson describes his paintings as secular compositions structured by rhythmic disambiguation. He employs a protean process where endpoints are broken, frayed, and reconsidered.
Thompson nods to iconic modernist works while simultaneously upending his relationship to them by constantly wrestling free of pictorial convention. His works achieve their greatest effect when, like a mirage, a recognizable image is indicated but ultimately denied. For Thompson the canvas is a site of improvisation and reverie.
