Walker Buckner: Recent Paintings
Lori Bookstein Fine Art is pleased to announce an exhibition of recent paintings by Walker Buckner. This is the artist's fifth solo-show with the gallery.
This exhibition will be comprised of recent paintings executed over the last four years. Working with easel-sized canvases, Buckner paints his work en plein air.
This latest series of work exemplifies the artist鈥檚 continued interest in articulating the natural world around him. Painted in either central Ohio or outside of Boston, Massachusetts, the work depicts both a temperate landscape and climate. In many paintings, the expanse of the sky extends well beyond the top half of the canvas, presenting itself as the focal point of the picture rather than the backdrop to a landscape. Several more paintings have no horizon line at all, but instead, portray loosely painted fields of clouds that extend to the edges of the picture plane. Indeed, these cloudscapes seem more akin to gestural abstractions (or 鈥渁ll-over paintings鈥�) than
impressionist renderings.
