Reception For Two New Exhibits At Duck Creek

Arts Center at Duck Creek
WILLIAM ERIC BROWN: ATKA
Reception: Saturday, July 22, 3-5pm
Artist’s Talk with Steve Miller: Sunday, July 23, 3pm
William Eric Brown’s Atka series is based on a set of 35mm slides that his father shot in Antarctica during the 1960’s on board the U.S. Navy icebreaker, U.S.S. Atka. Brown enlarges, stitches together and reconstitutes these images with spray paint and diagrammatic charcoal marks to create a new narrative that emphasizes the isolation and remoteness of the landscape and in many respects its relevance to the current climate crisis.
TARA GEER: SOWN IN THE HALF LIGHT
Reception: Saturday, July 22, 5-7pm
Artist Talk: Sunday, August 20, 3pm

Though drawing is traditionally considered the preparation or practice for, say, painting, Geer harnesses the temporality and quickening of a sketch to make large, monochromatic work with stark emotional power. Her drawings have both expertise and moving roughness. In this first public, large-scale installation of her work, strange  bulbs, pale stems and wildly scribbled panels hum with possibility and raw, determined life.
