TOM MILLERS' EXHIBITION

Box Gallery presents an exhibition of new acrylic relief paintings by Tom Miller entitled Holes, Walls, and Slabs.

Exhibition Dates: August 12 – September 10, 2011

Opening Reception: Friday, August 12, 5–7 pm

Miller paints on panel or paper to build low-relief monochromatic or 2-color works, commonly in white and/or grey. The imagery references simple industrial or architectural forms. Some forms seem to hover in abstracted space. In contrast, the matte paint contributes to a sense of visual weightiness. These are bold, elegant works, made even more appealing by subtle imperfections – little scratches, smudges, sketch lines, and pockmarks which recall the maker’s hand. Miller writes: “I use forced perspective and symmetry in my work as a structural limitation. I also complicate the image by removing horizon lines. This opens up the space. These two-dimensional works are as much sculpture as drawing and painting. As a result they reside in the middle ground between physical presence and illusion.”

KRISTA PETERS' exhibition opening tonight! 5-7pm at Box Gallery

We are pleased to invite you to Krista Peters’ first solo exhibition SCAR PAPER opening tonight, July 8^,5-7pm at Box Gallery.

Peters writes:

“Our land - our bones, suspended, strung in time, knotted tangled and caught, sit weighted, pulling towards the center. A negotiation of lines, existing, drawing deeper, spanning distances; objects lift in static movement, in calcified motion. Our surfaces expand, contract, bloat, wrinkle, bubble, age. As it is worked it is lived, worn through its motion. Pulled and prodded, torn and appended, slowly healing-over until it forms its own skin. Lines in our flesh show where minds draw deeper.”
