Castelli Art Space is pleased to announce a Two-Person exhibition of new paintings by Susan Lizotte and Trine Churchill.
Susan Lizotte’s paintings are a visual response to loss and are at once bold, lush and expressive in the very best sense of the word. They utilize flowers as symbols of loss but also as emblems of regeneration and rebirth. Lizotte utilizes motifs of flowers and bright expansive fields of color to represent a larger more complex system that ultimately includes love, forgiveness and celebration. Lizotte’s work is imbued with a sense of mystery, and are suggestive of literary references. (Eve Wood)
With The Woodstock Landscape paintings, Trine Churchill (b. 1969) explores the era of the counterculture and its ripple effect throughout the world, including Denmark her native country. The paintings of abstract lush landscape combines imagery from the grounds of the Woodstock Music Festival (1969) with personal references found in her family’s photo albums. Small worlds of fictional memory; the paintings rouse a feeling of dream with a narrative of the personal yet universal.
The artists will be present at the gallery for the duration of the exhibition May 5 – May 12, from 10 – 6, except for May 7, and by appointment.
