If These Walls Could Talk: Between Realism & Whimsy
Carrie Haddad Gallery is pleased to present If These Walls Could Talk, a group exhibition featuring painters of interiors and architecture. Exhibiting artists include Richard Britell, Kathryn Freeman, Brigid Kennedy, Glenn Palmer-Smith, and Judith Wyer. These artists similarly explore how built environments can be emblematic of inward human experience. Also on view will be a selection of abstracted still lifes from the 1960s and early 1970s by the late Lionel Gilbert.
The creative multihyphenate Richard Britell is a natural storyteller, whether through his pieces of short fiction or his artwork. This exhibition will juxtapose his oil paintings of New York City edifices 鈥 closely cropped and compacted with exquisite detail 鈥 with a recent series of portraits depicting such figures as prima ballerina Anna Pavlova and French saloniste Madame Dupin. The paintings evidence Britell鈥檚 sophisticated sense of observation. He was born in Utica, New York; studied at Pratt Institute, Syracuse University, and the University of Massachusetts, Amherst; and has exhibited with Carrie Haddad Gallery since the late aughts.
