Progressions - the art of Alan Klawans and Larry Mitnick

 

Progressions
Alan Klawans and Larry Mitnick

Exhibit: September 5 - October 6
Opening Reception: Saturday, September 7, 4-7 pm

Artist's Gallery is pleased to present "Progressions," an exhibition showcasing the work of Alan Klawans and Larry Mitnick.

Klawans' digital abstractions are often informed by his observations. His inspiration comes from his daily life, his family, people he has known, books, movies and television. The ordering of visual elements such as points, lines, planes, volumes and color create rhythmic progressions. Our eyes move left and right, up and down, along and into lines that define symmetric and asymmetric compositions.

In contrast to Klawans' digital prints, Mitnick's works are hand painted, acrylic paintings. One discovers in each abstract piece a unique set of spatial, formal and color progressions, often inspired by nature. We are presented with a variety of compositions that explore animated edges and voided centers, as well as rotating and layered movement. Contrasting hard-edged opaque and transparent forms with textured brushwork Mitnick excites our eyes, mind and imagination.

Both artists rely on the viewer to complete the experience. The viewer is invited to daydream and wonder, venturing into a creative dialogue with the work.

And don't forget - along with our featured exhibit, all 16 of our professional artists continuously have their work on exhibit - there is new work here every month. We welcome your visits!
