David Fobes
"Chromantic"
 

September 5, 2008 – October 10, 2008


 

Until I saw these art works, I had no idea there are so many colors of duct tape.  David has mastered handling this temperamental material.  He is able to control the warp and weft of the tape and lay it down on board so that the final result appears like marquetry.

In the artist’s words – these new two-dimensional works constructed only with color duct tapes, “incorporate an architectural vision, combined with a painter’s eye for a flip flop between plastic illusion and planar flatness and illusory color transparency.” 

This exhibition is being presented in conjunction with the David Zapf Gallery.

 There will be a  reception with the artist
 Friday
 September 5th  6 - 9 pm
