PETER ALEXANDER + SARAH BRAMAN
2010-10-18These two seemingly disparate artists coalesce in this show of sculpture and wall-mounted objects. The idea for this exhibition originated at NADA 2009 where Sarah Braman viewed Peter Alexander’s work for the first time. Her initial reaction and Alexander’s subsequent response to Braman’s work led to enthusiastic plans for this show.
Though Alexander and Braman are from opposite coasts and different generations, their works balance sinuously and occupy space with a shared sensitivity to situation and context. Each artist addresses concerns of perception, light, atmosphere, and spatial orientation, employing color and translucence and resolving their own formal pursuits in ways that are varied yet surprisingly compatible. In doing so, their work becomes a concrete, abstract response to a personal and atmospheric experience.
Exhibition runs through to December 18th,2010
