Erin McSavaney: Spaces of the Everyday

15octAll Day13decErin McSavaney: Spaces of the Everyday

Event Details

The Spaces of the Everyday exhibition came about after a thoughtful conversation with Erin McSavaney in which the role of architecture in painting first drew the curator’s attention to his practice. His depictions of houses and urban architecture offer a visually striking and intellectually provocative intersection of two historically divergent painting modes. McSavaney’s works are rendered with photographic precision—indeed, he uses a camera as a kind of sketchbook—evoking the immersive quality of high realism; meanwhile, at times, hard-edge abstraction takes over the subject matter as scenes are disrupted—sometimes subtly, sometimes boldly. Each of these traditions embodies a distinct discourse of image-making.
