Snakes And Ladders
Robert Roberts
October 28 - December 1, 2016
Opening Reception: Friday, October 28, 6-8pm
Four Barrel Coffee is pleased to present Snakes And Ladders by Robert Roberts. Based on aesthetic preferences informed by frequent world travel and a pure curiosity about materials and color, Roberts’
paintings are an expression of his work in architecture, his travels in Africa, Asia and India, and his search for self-understanding. They are composed of a variety of oil based media, and applied with a variety of improvised and repurposed tools, including brushes, mops and stencils made from plants and lace.. He has been particularly influenced by the colors of Rajasthan and the shapes of Japan. And on a down to earth level, he takes pleasure in getting paint on his clothes and hands. Robert was born and raised in Kansas. He studied architecture at Kansas State University and practiced architecture in New York, Nigeria, Rome and San Francisco. Join us on Friday October 28 from 6-8pm for the opening reception. Drinks will be served and the artist will be in attendance.
