CINDY TOWER: Road Show
October 30, 2014 – January 10, 2015
Opening Reception:Thursday, October 30, 2014 7-9 pm
Bruno David is delighted to inaugurate our second space in The Grove neighborhood of St. Louis with a special exhibition Road Show by Cindy Tower. Cindy Tower is a painter, sculptor, video and performance artist who lets her creative background shine through in her practices. Raw in spirit and conviction, Tower’s highly articulated works engage the viewer in a visceral, otherworldly experience. Composite views of decrepitude become metaphors of bodily functions and reflect the political climate of our modern world. Wet, gloppy oil paint is applied in a loose yet precise manner in which subjects continuously dematerialize and reemerge. Tower’s painting practice mirrors her concept of gradual accumulation that not only provides an exhausting, claustrophobic sensation but also raises questions regarding the complexity and level of exchange that occurs in our modern world. Presenting the themes of consumption, intimacy, obsolescence and loss, the paintings are an overwhelming celebration of materials and process. They provide the viewer with an intuitive, physical experience that both engages and engulfs him or her in the self-contained environment of each artwork.
