Keyes Art in Sag Harbor presents “Master Strokes” with art by William Harrington and John MacWhinnie. The show opens on Saturday, March 11, with a reception from 5:30 to 7 PM.
Harrington, who died in July 2020, was an American painter, sculptor, and collage artist whose muscular, potent, and often soaring work embodies the myriad contradictions, ironies, and perennial hopefulness of life in the modern world.
MacWhinnie’s work furthers his investigation into space, subject and color. The artist grew up in Southampton, where he resides and works.
“My current works were first inspired by a visit to my studio in Southampton by Willem deKooning and Mimi Kilgore during the 1970s, when he saw an example of a work akin to my current style and excitedly encouraged my continuation of it,” said the artist.
The show runs through April 8.
