Please join The Painting Center Thursday September 6, 2007 for the opening reception for Anne Russinof: Recent Paintings and Drawings in the Main Gallery and Francis O’Shea: Recent Paintings in the Project Room.

Anne Russinof's exhibition of recent paintings and drawings is a foray into liquid territory, with depths, shallows, and overlapping orders. She attempts to catch the process of change in some of its “endless forms,” invoking Darwin and the way in which complex structures come from simple beginnings. The painting is a snapshot of that moment in which the flux of jumbling and crowded shapes has been temporarily arrested. Nature’s accretions and interruptions are here contained by the organizing principle that is the canvas edge.

In the Project Room Francis O'Shea's exhibition of recent paintings explores the conversation between the patterned plane, the organic forms that float on top of it, and the edge of the canvas. Tension and balance are critical.

We hope to see you there!
