One of the most original artists of the twentieth century, Charles Burchfield (1893-1967), is featured in DC Moore's project space. Burchfield's intensely personal, often spiritualized, engagement with landscape is evident in the choice selection of watercolors in this focused exhibition.

DC Moore Gallery is pleased to present recent paintings by Eric Aho, who explores the natural world in visions mediated by human memory, introspection, imagination, and history. More broadly, Aho explores our tenuous ability to represent things seen, remembered, and embellished by our minds. “As he sees it,” Diana Tuite writes in the catalogue essay, “his task is to present immediacy remembered, to reconcile directness with introspection. How might the experience of the painting reciprocate the experience of that which it depicts?” His paintings suggest that imaginative flourishes and digressions are more vital and interesting than a supposedly accurate, “objective” rendering of a lived experience.

DC Moore Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of Barbara Takenaga's most recent paintings, which are her boldest and most diverse yet. Takenaga has recently introduced evocative horizon lines in her abstract explorations of pattern and movement, and this group suggests natural phenomena like never before. At the same time, Takenaga remains a committed abstractionist, pushing her radiating dots across these canvases in newly bright, saturated, and varied hues.Accompanying the exhibition is a fully illustrated catalogue with a conversation between Takenaga and Robert Kushner.

DC Moore Gallery has announced its summer group exhibition, Woods, Lovely, Dark and Deep, curated by John Zinsser, on view from June 20 - August 15 with an opening reception tonight, June 20 from 6 - 8 pm.
DC Moore Gallery is pleased to announce its summer group exhibition, Woods, Lovely, Dark and Deep, curated by John Zinsser, on view from June 20 – August 15 with an opening reception on June 20 from 6 – 8 pm. This show juxtaposes historical and contemporary painters and photographers as a way of re-thinking “landscape” and its associated meanings. Zinsser began with an intuitive notion, looking at artists for whom this representational genre allows a revealing of hidden places or psychological foreboding. For many, illusion is played against literal reality, whether in terms of paint physicality or received photographic treatment of subject matter.
Alexi Worth presents his most ambitious exhibition yet, made in the distinctive mesh-based idiom that he has developed over the past three years. On view in the main gallery are large images of private and public subjects: solitary smokers, wine-drinkers, crumpled texts, and crowds of protesters in damaged cities. Thanks in part to the “physical halftone” of the mesh support, Worth's paintings have a tonal delicacy and flat depth reminiscent of print and photographic media. And yet their willful proportions show their origins as freehand drawings, both “hand-made and mind-made.”
