Robischon Gallery will present “Sweetbitter Beast,” by Amy Ellingson (CRF 2007). The opening reception of the solo exhibition will take place May 17th, 6-8pm, in Denver, CO. The show will run through July 14th.
“Sweetbitter Beast” includes four new paintings, a sculptural installation and a suite of four prints.
From Amy: “I am pleased to announce my recent print project, published by Magnolia Editions. I thoroughly enjoyed this collaboration with the Master Printers at Magnolia, which allowed me to explore the complex layering potential of printmaking. Identical/Variation (green, red, blue, black) is a suite of four prints, each comprising an etching in black ink, printed at Magnolia from a plate created on Magnolia’s flatbed printer; elements of vibrant acrylic color; and a relief woodcut, printed in four different colors in variable orientation. Like the Identical/Variation theme that I have revisited over the years in my paintings, Identical/Variation (green, red, blue, black) employs a variable matrix that allows for the possibility of originality within the parameters of repetition.”
