Sarah Shepard Gallery Exhibition Opening: Selected Works, Stephen Beal

Please join Sarah Shepard Gallery on April 24th, 6-8pm, to celebrate the opening of Selected Works, a solo show of Bay Area artist Stephen Beal's paintings. The grid--ubiquitous, logical, resolute, infinite--acts as inspiration, structure, and image in Beal's work. In these paintings, the penciled matrices function as vehicles to explore the subtleties of color and brush stroke. Selected Works includes some of Beal's smaller white paintings, a selection of earlier dot paintings in varied colors, and a series of new black paintings. With grid as structure and paint as subject, this collection of work offers a musical reflection on an illustrious visual form.
