Installation Views

Many of my exhibits, both of my own work and those I’ve curated, make particular use of the idiosyncrasies of the exhibition space.  Sometimes individual paintings, when hung together in close proximity, can combine to create a polyptych or large multipart image on a wall. Sometimes the framing of the work can complement or contrast with the character of a given space.  In Celebrate Being Alive, for instance, the elaborate frames made for a jarring juxtaposition with the raw concrete of the Gowanus Boathouse.  In contrast, the 69-foot ribbon of paper in Edge of the Continent aligned harmoniously with the rustic planks and irregularities of the antique barn/workspace.  In Brothers and Sisters and Respect!,  both at St. Paul the Apostle, the content of the artwork directly addressed the architecture, iconography and even the ideology of the Catholic Church.  Not included here are images of Inside Out, which merits attention as a separate event or body of work in its own right.
