Becoming........

November 14, 2014 – January 4, 2015

Deborah Brown, Gregory Curry, Mary Dwyer, Alice Momm · Gallery's Fifth Exhibition

Becoming is the gallery's fifth exhibition. The four artists in Becoming… invigorate the genre of portraiture with wit, beauty, and style. They hone in on the essence of their subjects' personalities, depicting inner life and social context rather than a physical likeness. From historical paintings that veer into abstraction, surrealist found faces in shards of bark, to beautifully rendered forms not fully human, each artist presents a cohesive body of work that reveals as much of their intentions as it does their subjects'.
