Color on Colour

4/26/2017

0 Comments

Visitors to this dynamic new exhibition of Calgary painters Mali Vargas and Errol Lee Fullen may be surprised to discover that although their work seemingly floats in the esoteric realm of Contemporary Colour Abstraction, it’s sources and inspiration are firmly rooted in the concrete facts of their everyday experience. Fullen’s plywood paintings find their origin in the very physical act of painting outdoors under extreme weather conditions whereas Vargas’ new canvases are inspired by her recent interests in physiology of neuroanatomy and the chemistry of fluid dynamics.

Fluid nature...last and final stop

10/18/2016

Fluid Nature will make its last and final stop at the Crowsnest Pass Public Art Gallery this November.  If you haven't seen the exhibit, then save the date!  The show runs from November 12 to December 11, 2016 and I will be there for the Artist Reception on November 13 from 1pm-3pm.   The exhibit explores the idea or hypothesis of Rheological Abstraction:

​"Rheological Abstraction is a form of art which takes into careful consideration the rheological  properties of the materials being used.   Narrative becomes secondary or incidental to the fluid signature of the materials on the substrate.  The relationship between author and artwork develops simultaneously through the process of creation rather than through the execution of an perceived iconographic idea".   - Mali Vargas
