Vellum is a group exhibition featuring selected works by gallery
artists that explore the use of three foundational mediums- paper,
mylar, and vellum-
in the form of prints, paintings, mixed media and drawings. Artists to
be included are Joe Amrhein, Lewis deSoto, Josh Dov, Donald Feasél,
Linda Fleming, Robert Jack, Stephen Sollins, Nellie King Solomon and
Andrea Way. The show runs through
August 26.
On display will be the KLS series of digital prints by multi-media
artist, Lewis deSoto. Inspired by the Hermann Hesse novella,
Klingsor's Last Summer, deSoto traces the colors described in each
chapter of the story.
With a system of analyzation using internet searches and image
processing, he determines the palette of colors used to make each ring
in the circular compositions. They comprise a powerful installation of
ten framed works.
In counterpoint to deSoto will be a new eight by eight foot painting
on mylar, Loud Cloud, by San Francisco painter, Nellie King Solomon.
Solomon has hit her stride in recent paintings, with bold, dramatic
gestures and a sense of exuberance
in non-traditional materials. New York artist, Joe Amrhein, will
display a signature work that reproduces phrases from art criticism
painted as signage on mylar strips. Bay Area sculptor, Linda Fleming,
will exhibit a new five foot drawing,
and Andrea Way will show a new ballpoint pen drawing that is a
veritable patchwork of inked patterns. Other works on view will be a
painting on vellum by Donald Feasél, and works on paper by artists
Josh Dov, Robert Jack and Stephen Sollins.
Project Room: An adjunct exhibition of works on paper by Bay area
legends Robert Arneson, Joan Brown, Richard Diebenkorn, Roy De Forest
and James Weeks.
