A screen door allows circulation-of air, light, conversation. It is a porous boundary, used to mark the transition between inside and out, the personal and public.

In summer's heavy heat, it is of the utmost importance. The four painters in this exhibition have set up a screen, a scrim, a partition in their paintings that allows them to operate within the exterior, coaxing out the mercurial habits of painting behind a seemingly sound surface.
