Andrea Belag “Inheritance”
Morgan Lehman Gallery
This event has ended.
Color, light, spatial illusion.
The vocabulary of the abstract.
Desire.
To discover form through imagination and intuition.
Color as chord, set in motion.
Rag, brush, and knife. Tools of both creation and destruction.
Translating a vision into a painting decision.
Intelligence, emotion, and memory.
Inheritance.
A painting ends when it dries.
