About the Item

Bruce Adams is best known as a conceptually based figurative painter who references various (often historical) painting styles. In exploring the act of painting, Adams peels back the layers of meaning inherent in making and viewing art. The title of this series comes from the many images associated with archeology and other sciences. But it also comes from a particular state of mind that informed the work. They are all acrylic paintings on unstretched canvas. Provenance: White Columns Gallery, NYC

  • Challenger
    By James Oliver
    Located in Philadelphia, PA
    "Challenger" is an original painting on canvas by James Oliver measuring 40in x 60in. James Oliver is a painter whose precise visual language pushes the tradition of twentieth century abstraction into a contemporary context. Oliver is a conceptually driven formalist whose work is inspired by his dreams and emotional states, which he abstracts into an undetermined and subjective viewing experience by emphasizing line, color, and form.
