Jeffrey Palladini & Alex Weinstein
March 9 – April 15, 2016
Opening Reception: Wednesday, March 9, 5:30 - 7:30

Andrea Schwartz Gallery is pleased to announce a two-person exhibition featuring recent paintings by Jeffrey Palladini and Alex Weinstein.

Jeffrey Palladini is best known for his highly recognizable figurative paintings, echoing widely varied influences from medieval iconography to Japanese woodcut to pop art, all while displaying a strong cinematic quality. Palladini does not offer his viewers a set compositional narrative but a moment frozen in time. He employs vibrant pigments, hand – drawn lines, and a judicious suppression of background detail, further perpetuating the ambiguity and therefore inviting the viewer’s imagination to fill in the blanks.

Alex Weinstein continues his preoccupation with depicting the Sublime – following in the steps of artists from Casper David Friedrich to Monet, from Mark Rothko to James Turrell. His color field paintings operate dually as near monochromatic abstractions and sublime renderings of real places. Weinstein paints hazy surfaces and celestial atmospheres filled with ambient lighting that in the words of the artist create “visual resting places” for his viewer’s interpretative associations, to collect inside.

Andrea Schwartz Gallery was established in 1982 and is located in the South of Market district of San Francisco at 545 – 4th Street. ASG exhibits contemporary work of mid-career artists from the Bay Area and across the country. ASG is a member of SFADA. Gallery Hours are Monday - Friday 9 - 5, Saturday by appointment. For further information and materials please contact Amanda Baker at 415-495-2090 or [email protected]. Additional information may also be found on our website, https://www.asgallery.com.
