Sandy Straus "Abstract Gardens"
Gallery Onetwentyeight
This event has ended.
Long before Sandy Straus visited Ireland for the first time two years ago, she had been exploring her own gardens that slope amid sunlit glades surrounding her summer house in the Hudson Valley. A devotee of nature she was reflecting upon the wondrous plants and her own art. Specifically, she wanted to remove the painterly vulnerability from flowers that usually embeds them in realistic imagery. Inspired by the twisting, curving shape of fuchsia bushes and vines, she moves effortlessly into an intelligent, controlled abstraction of opulent painterliness.
