Lamont Gallery Presents: THROUGH LINE
THROUGH LINE September 5 – November 23, 2024 Reception: September 19, 5-7pm Works by Carly Glovinski, Lynne Harlow, Katherine Mitchell DiRico, Rachel Perry, Patricia Rangel, and August Ventimiglia THROUGH LINE celebrates basic mark-making as a foundation for the remarkable. Each of the six artists on view explores line through the lens of their distinct practices and mediums, ranging from marker to string, chalk, and even dirt! Together, they apply their shared interest in using lines as the basis for their work to boldly illustrate how understated, rudimentary marks can be explored more deeply. Collectively, the artworks on view act as tributes to the mark, celebrating the multitude of ways lines can be made, manipulated, and made monumental. In dialogue with one another, thematic commonalities or through lines between the works emerge and bring the exhibition into focus. The featured artists shake up flat presentations of line, most breaking the plane entirely to render gesture and form in physical space. While their mediums are vast and divergent, each artist enters the conversation through painstakingly repetitious, modest, and slow gestures. They amass into vibrant works that arrest the viewer just as quickly as they entice them to slow down and look more closely. Through drawing (on and off the wall) digital media, sculpture, and installation, THROUGH LINE reminds us that simple lines are the basis of what can truly shape anything.
