Chuck Webster “Signals, Calls, and Marches”

Planthouse

This event has ended.

Planthouse presents Signals, Calls, and Marches featuring new works on paper by Chuck Webster. The show includes collages on handmade paper, compiled within the last two years yet composed of drawings made over the last two decades of Webster’s career. Collaborations with Dieu Donne in which drawings are embedded in the wet sheet with paper pulp painting are the cornerstone of this show. In addition, Planthouse debuts a bronze sculpture published in conjunction with the exhibition. The sculpture, fabricated by Excalibur in Brooklyn, is Webster’s first edition in bronze. Unique pieces in encaustic painted wood accompany the sculpture.

Born in Binghamton, NY, Chuck Webster received a B.A. from Oberlin College in 1992 and a MFA from American University in 1996. The artist’s work can be seen in numerous public collections, including the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, NY; The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY; Baltimore Museum of Art, Baltimore, MD; the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, TX; the Dallas Museum of Art, Dallas, TX; and The Archives of the Rothko Chapel in Houston.
