Front Room Gallery is pleased to present, "The Shadows of Panspermia" an exhibition featuring paintings by Gregory Curry and photographs by Lisa DiLillo. Both artists create dreamlike, ambiguous, landscapes. By avoiding easily recognizable elements of our environment these two artists give us new perspectives on our surroundings. Gregory Curry states that the mission of his paintings is "to contemplate a post human environment inspired by and extrapolated from the various dynamic conditions now impacting on the human animal." The entities that populate his paintings seem imbued with pure energy on a primordial level, set against a background of contrasting complimentary colors. Yet Curry still utilizes familiar modes of representation such as rendering, perspective and classic spatial relationships in a way that draws the viewers into these uncanny realms. Lisa DiLillo's images, in contrast, are actual photographs of elemental forms existing in nature. DiLillo focuses on environments in transition using common materials such as bubble gum, air freshener gels, glue, shampoo, Styrofoam, and glitter to create luminous, sparkling terrain. In DeLillo's photographs ordinary materials are imbued with transcendent qualities, building on such qualities of light as fugitive light trails, reflections, and translucence. The Front Room is at 147 Roebling St. For more information please contact: Daniel Aycock (718) 782-2556 [email protected] |
