John F. Simon, Jr: Endlessly Expanding
Sandra Gering Inc is pleased to present JOHN F. SIMON, JR.: Endlessly Expanding, a solo exhibition of new wall sculptures and recent works on paper. The exhibition coincides with the book publication of Drawing Your Own Path: 33 Practices at the Crossroads of Art and Meditation, as well as an off-site exhibition of related sculpture at Racine Berkow Associates in Long Island City, Queens, opening on October 16th.
Endlessly Expanding adds to Simon鈥檚 ongoing 'expansion' series. Begun in 2010 on small cards and drawn daily, the series has grown into a significant body of large-scale CNC reliefs and works on paper. The current exhibition pairs highly engineered carvings with spontaneous and improvisational marks, often in the same piece. Mirroring his career-long dedication to artistic growth and restless search for imagery with open-ended yet resonant meaning, Simon鈥檚 output has recently crystalized around specific themes: breakthroughs in the creative process, unchecked growth, impermanence of self, and ultimately, trust in improvisational drawing.
