About the Item

Over the past few years Steven Baris Has been fascinated by the rapid proliferation of fulfillment and distribution centers, sprouting like mushrooms throughout metropolitan regions. Easy to spot; these signature postindustrial landmarks are overwhelmingly bland and massive, as they totally transform if not obliterate the previously green countryside. Baris Has surveyed them from on high (using Google Earth) and taken occasional overland “expeditions,” photographing and videotaping these quintessential placeless places. Much of Baris’ artwork over the past decade has been directly or indirectly influenced by the implicit geometries and unique spatial configurations of these architectural settings. More recently Baris Has been intrigued not only by the distribution of these “chunks” in space, but how they are perceived in time—initially from filming them in sequence from a moving car, and subsequently through numerous “timeline” screen grabs from his video editing interface. these animated sequences became the subject of his paintings, now untethered to any constraints of photographic representation. Steven Baris was born in Aberdeen Washington and grew up on various American Indian reservations in Northern California, Montana, and Washington State. He received a B.A. from The Evergreen State College in Olympia Washington and a MFA from the Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia. He lives and teaches art in the Philadelphia area. He has exhibited widely throughout North America and Europe; Steven Baris’ work is represented in Philadelphia by the Pentimenti gallery, in Denver by the Space Gallery, and in New York by both ODETTA and Kathryn Markel Fine Art Galleries.

'Abstract #18', by Anthony Dyke, Oil Painting on Panel
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
This 11" x 14" oil on canvas painting is by Boston-based artist, Anthony Dyke. The painting is an example of geometric abstraction, composed through an arrangement of rectilinear forms, each rendered in bold, saturated color. Dominating the left side is a deep green vertical rectangle and adjacent to it is a narrow red vertical stripe, generating a visual dialogue between the broader green plane and the surrounding forms. A field of light blue occupies the top portion above. mid-composition, a horizontal mint green band stretches across the surface, and on top rests a tilted rectangular form shifting from white to warm red in a subtle gradient. To the far right, a tall blue vertical bar intersects with a fine yellow line. The base of the painting features a complex layering of darker hues: a black horizontal stripe, accompanied by stacked rectangles in red, purple, and yellow. Anthony Dyke was born in Norwich, Vermont and attended the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University earning a BFA and MFA in painting. As an artist and arts educator, he relocated from New York City to his downtown Oklahoma City studio, working there for two decades before returning to Boston in 2020. Coming from Vermont where the seasons are distinctly different from one another, his shift from a pastoral setting to an urban environment set up a dichotomy in the work, both visual and emotional. Tony has an extensive education in painting, photography, graphic design and figure sculpture. These mediums intersect in his work through many years of creating artworks and currently speak to his interest in abstract painting. During his senior year in the BFA Program at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, my large painting “Natole” was chosen by Frank Stella (the juror) into the highly competitive and prestigious Dana Pond...
