Oils by Joseph Cave at Gallery C in Raleigh, NC

Gallery C in Raleigh, NC, is pleased to present new images of the North Carolina landscape by Joseph Cave. Cave, who is increasingly being honored as one of the Southeast's finest living artists, will be exhibiting nineteen new oils on canvas through Mar. 28, 2000.

Cave's masterful style uses a broad brushstroke and intense color to capture his surroundings whether they are outdoor scenes of the rural farmland or floral still lifes and interior scenes. There is very little distinction between subject and background. A turbulent, cloud filled sky might well compete with barns and tobacco fields for attention if not dominate a canvas entirely. The background around a floral arrangement is painted with the same dynamic energy as the flowers, sometimes making it hard to distinguish where one ends and the other begins. The artist sees the whole canvas and makes no efforts for us to see otherwise.

Cave has been painting professionally for over forty years across this country and in Europe. He has paintings in many distinguished collections including that of The North Carolina Museum of Art, Duke University Medical Center, Glaxo Wellcome, Senator John Edwards, and Central Carolina Bank. Gallery C has represented Joseph Cave since 1991.
