Internal / External

"Internal / External"
A 2-person show with Marc Reed and Andrew Werth
at Artists' Gallery in Lambertville, NJ
Sept 11 - Oct 4, 2009
Opening reception: Saturday, Sept 12 from 4:00 to 7:00 pm

Internal / External contrasts the abstract internal "mindscapes" of Andrew Werth with the external urban industrial landscapes of Marc Reed.

"The Reality Problem"
by Andrew Werth

Andrew Werth's abstract paintings focus on issues of perception, consciousness, and the philosophy of mind. Using thousands of hand-painted marks of varying colors on multiple layers of paint, he creates pieces where the perceptual experience is often the subject of the paintings. Through the careful interplay of color between foreground and background, his paintings possess a visual depth that belies their generally flat surfaces.


"Reach"
by Marc Reed

Marc Reed looks outward towards the American industrial landscape in representational paintings of scenes in and around New Jersey. Using traditional oil and charcoal painting techniques, he captures the aesthetic quality of urban decay with angled lighting, gritty texture, and atmospheric skies.
