Sherman and MacGuffie 2006Presented by Baumgartner Gallery April 15, 2006- May 10, 2006Reception: April 15, 6:00 pm - 8:00 pmWes Sherman, Marci MacGuffieTwo one-person solo exhibitionWes Sherman Baumgartner Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of paintings by Wes Sherman. His new paintings take on the task of recycling painting's history, both past and present, while embracing its heritage and offering neither eulogy nor apology for the act of painting itself. Though grounded by the pursuit of the modernist idea of truth through materials, these new paintings remain unself-conscious and playful with familiar iconography, styles and genres teasing the eye as they emerge and converge on the canvas. Marci MacGuffie Baumgartner Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of drawings, paintings and an installation by Marci MacGuffie. This is her first solo exhibition in New York. The artist celebrates the convergence between nature and culture by combining chaotic and ordered working processes. Repeated formations, materials and textures are employed in order to unlock a deeper grasp of transient beauty. MacGuffie developed a mark-making technique that illuminates patterns found in different natural circumstances.
