Bruno David Gallery: 12 January 2007

JENNA BAUER: Thunder Fields in the Main Gallery

CINDY TOWER in the Project Room and Media Room

Opening Reception: Friday, January 12 from 6 to 9 pm (Exhibition: Jan 5 – Feb 3, 2007)

In her recent work, Jenna Bauer approaches what she describes as “the Loneliest Highway in America paired with the minimalist work pioneered by color theorists of the mid-twentieth century.” With her use of color, light, straight lines and right angles, she creates a landscape made of “a double pixilation of rolling thunder clouds, thriving poppies, cool soil, rolling hills, brilliant blue skies, and luminous rays of light.”

New York artist Cindy Tower will present her recent paintings from her on-going Workplace Series in the Project Room. The series, based on paintings of abandoned warehouses and machinery, mirrors her concept of gradual accumulation which provides an exhausting, claustrophobic sensation and raises questions regarding the complexity and level of exchange that occurs in our modern world. Raw in spirit and conviction, Tower’s highly articulated works provide evidence of their making and engage the viewer in a visceral, otherworldly experience.

Bruno David Gallery is located at 3721 Washington Boulevard, in the heart of the Grand Center arts district, directly opposite The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis. The gallery is open free to the public and the hours are 10 AM to 5 PM Wednesday through Saturday, and by appointment.
