Stephen Beal & Lawrence Rinder In Conversation: Thursday, May 22, 6:30-8:00pm
Sarah Shepard Gallery is pleased to announce a solo exhibition of Stephen Beal’s paintings. The grid—ubiquitous, logical, resolute, infinite—acts as inspiration, structure, and image in Beal’s work. In these paintings, the penciled matrices function as vehicles to explore the subtleties of color and brush stroke. Beal’s interest in the surface quality of paint, and its physical interaction with and manipulation of the grid, is what transforms his canvases into methodical, material studies with an undeniable presence. His paintings bring a musicality to the measured world of the grid.
