Beyond the Sensibility

Gallery IHN presents "Beyond the Sensibility", a group exhibition of the artists, William Steiger, Bronlyn Jones, James Stroud and Teo Gonzalez, who are currently in spotlight and on views in New York and Boston, describes the meeting of their delicate and sensibility of art.

William Steiger depicts industrial and silent landscapes with depth images such as airplanes, water tanks, constructed towers, and rail track and suburb factories. Steiger favors a palette of black, gray, olive and ochre sepia colors, which captures the scenes of faded memories. The images drift somewhere between something remembered, observed, or imagined. The Metropolitan Museum of Art, MOMA, Whitney Museum of American Art, other numerous art museums and corporations keep his collection.

James Stroud who was graduated from Yale University for MFA in printmaking in 1984, and is a founder and director of Center Street Studio. He is also a master printer who collaborates with a diverse range of visual artists and mastered the strenuous technicalities. The artists work employ primary colors whose shimmer comes from an unusual blend of translucent printing oils, which rolled on to aluminum, copper or stainless steel plates. Despite the limitations of this procedure and the exacting rigor of his techniques, the geometric abstractions that result are surprisingly luminous and seductive.

Bronlyn Jones, Boston based artist, has recently held at Barbara Krakow Gallery in Boston. Jones' paintings are small and minimalist. All her small pieces, marked by exquisite tracings and delicate texture could be featured as a signpost. By working in series, She has developed her own language with shapes that create rhythms and phrases. She builds her pieces with fine parallel lines or grids that form vertical and horizontal frames.

Teo Gonzalez is originally from Spain who now lives and works in the state from late 90's. His works have been in spotlight through out the country by diverse exhibitions. According to the recent published art press, his works have entered the collections of the L.A county Museum of Art, MOMA and the National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C. The painting consists tens of thousands dots of paint dropped onto the canvas in a grid pattern. This misinterpretation of Gonzalez's technique, along with the apparent desire to understand his process, indicates the complexity and seductive appeal of his art.
