New Paintings by Pier Wright and Mandolyn Wilson Rosen

Ms. Rosen puzzle-fits chunky shapes into slightly awkward and spatially curious compositions. She paints with a loose hand, some areas built up to a crusty impasto, others left a whisper-thin wash, the patterned forms shoved right up against the canvas' edge. Mr. Wright builds up condensed, color-packed paintings by swiping acrylic paint onto Duralar (Mylar's sturdier cousin) in Easter pastels, fleshy tones, and grassy greens. The work in this show is dizzying, loose and unpredictable. March 21 - April 27, 2014 Artists' Reception • Friday, April 4, 6-9pm Artist's Talk and Potluck • Friday April 18, 7pm
