GBGLA is pleased to present, Undercurrents, the gallery’s first exhibition of paintings by Los Angeles artist Stephen Wright opening on Saturday, October 17th, and continues through May 9th, 2020.
Wright is well known for his large scale figurative paintings and this new body of work is a radical departure for the artist. After years of exploring different objects in his work, Wright found a subject that truly spoke to him. Growing up in Southern California, the Pacific was an omnipresent part of Wright’s life and when he turned to it as subject matter for paintings, he found a worthy challenge in the attempt to capture its essence. Wright writes, “Water does not have a form; it adapts to forms created by energy. There is something kind of futile yet exciting about capturing the effect of water in a painting. There is no start or end point, just a fragment of an experience contained within a square or rectangle.”
