CHRISTOPHER MARTIN CENTRIC DISC COLLECTIONS | opening November 17th
Since debuting Christopher Martin's first discs for a commissioned installation of 35 pieces in 2011 for EQUINOX Dallas, successive series has continued the evolution of iterations that play with rhythmic and eye-catching geometry. The exhibition will highlight works from the Vorticity Solaris featuring earthy color tones and patterns reminiscent of base weaving from the American West. Heavily influenced by nature, Vorticity is inspired by the eye of the storm and resulting circular patterns. Sizes will range from 24 to 48 inches in diameter.
While all of Martin's work offers unparalleled technique in his style, the disc paintings from CENTRIC allow artists and clients to collaborate on personalized composition and stylistic options that reinforce their sculptural nature. The discs fit virtually every space, from a single piece hung above a fireplace to a selection of work cascading up a staircase.
STEVE WRUBEL'S LET'S RIDE Exhibition | opening November 17th
The LET'S RIDE show will dive heavily into Wrubel's Wild West series and present new works from the Storm Chasing Series. These works highlight the spirit of adventure and the American experience through the photographer's abstracts of riders on broncos and bulls removed from their rodeo backdrops and placed in natural settings photographed during Wrubel's travels. "I spend much time driving through the American West while making my way along the rodeo circuit to photography bull and bronco riders," said Wrubel. "I always have my camera at the ready to capture the wild natural landscapes I encounter during my trips, which are the source photographs that serve as the backdrops to the pieces in my Wild West series. I'm excited about bringing a piece of the American West to Atlanta through my pieces in this exhibition, and I hope audiences will connect with the wild and untamed spirit of these photographs as much as I do."
