Peter Fox: Find Your Self Lost
April 20 - May 19, 2012
Opening Reception Friday, April 20, 6-10 PM

Peter Fox investigates the nature of language and systems by exploring abstract painting. Following rigorous parameters - a primary palette and individual drops of paint - he focuses on Minimalism and Process. His working style is self-reflexive and hands off, both challenging and fascinating. He began his current investigation in painting by working with eyedroppers to apply the paint, allowing the paint and physics to shape the outcome, evolving a style and language from accident. Fox often allows found images and objects to become conceptual armatures for his work.

Fox's most recent work re-investigates his spilled paint pieces. Stencils are created from the color separations of the drips and then used to paint canvas and other surfaces via brushes. Peter describes the resulting process as "a meta-take on a meta-linguistic exploration."
