This varied group of artists, each of whom contributes a unique practice and vantage point to the exhibition, is drawn from two particular parts of the 20th Century: those born before 1950and those born post-1980. Despite the clear generational divide between the two groups, their work seems to defy this substantial gapin chronology and reflects similar and enduring aesthetic preoccupations with the quieter, more meditative potential of simple forms, minimal space, and sparse surfaces. Please join us for the opening reception at the gallery on Saturday, July 15,2017, from 6 to 8 pm.
