Zane York "Stewards"
Causey Contemporary
This event has ended.
Zane York's Stewards will contemplate our longing as humans to relate to the beasts and bugs and to share some form of experience with them, or, at the very least, feel like we have. At times, this desire is anthropomorphic, at other times it may be stereotypical, but sometimes it can feel more significant. Zane's paintings investigate the nuances of certain moments, raising a dichotomy between the temporal and the mystical. Mr. York states: "our interactions are limitless, and as stewards we find ourselves by minding the beasts."
Brooklyn-based painter, Zane York, was born in Fremont, Nebraska in 1978. He received his BFA in drawing, painting and sculpture from the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh and received an MFA from the New York Academy of Art. Aside from showing with Causey Contemporary, Zane has also exhibited his work with The Paine Art Museum in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, The Fontbonne University Gallery in St. Louis, Missouri, Eden Rock Gallery in St. Barthelemy, French West Indies, and in exhibitions at The New York Academy of Art. His work has earned numerous awards, from institutions such as the Posey Foundation, the Milton J. Memorial, The Prince of Wales Scholarship, among others.
