James Kuiper: "Flow"
January 24 - March 15
Please join us for an Opening Reception, Friday, January 24, 6-8 pm
Atrium announces an upcoming exhibition of new paintings by James Kuiper. "Flow" opens January 24 and runs through March 15. These semi-abstract works reflect a changing environment and call our attention to the fragility and harmony of the natural world--its extreme beauty and delicacy. Kuiper takes note of the incongruity of recognizing this and reconciling it with our current path of life. Appreciation and awe are strong elements, but we persist in our current mode, lamenting the impact, but unableto mitigate the consequences. He depicts his impressions of the wilderness encountered in the California surroundings and infuses the images with an air of romance, nostalgia, regret, and hope.These works are meant to call viewers out of complacency and to focus on the reality of a vanishing wilderness.
Opening Reception for the Artist, Friday, January 24, 6-8 pm
