Gallery C in Raleigh, NC, Features Works
by Jean Jack, Gordon Jameson and Jack Zhou
Gallery C in Raleigh, NC, presents a group show entitled,
Summer Selections, featuring new works by Jean Jack, Gordon
Jameson and Jack Zhou, on view through Sept. 6, 2005. Although
styles differ in all three artists, all work from the landscape
and use strong color as a defining mode of expression.
Jean Jack
Jean Jack lives and works in Santa Fe, NM,
yet she chooses the open spaces of the mid-west for her subject
matter. Iconic barns and old farm houses sit quietly under
large skies and beckon us to come home. The artist juxtaposes
large areas of strong contrasting colors to create a dream-like
environment for her very detailed, realistic buildings.
Gordon Jameson
Gordon Jameson uses art as a form of memory.
After first making sketches of his garden or the outlying landscape
near his rural, North Carolina home, Jameson moves into the studio
and begins a series of artworks resulting in a large, finished canvas
that is an abstraction or memory of the original sketch. Often
other ideas work their way into these "memories" and
the results are playful and elegant, warm and inviting.
Jack Zhou
Jack Zhou is a Chinese artist living in Canada. Zhou combines the realist traditions of Western oil painting with a strong, Asian aesthetic. The results are paintings of the landscape that suggest deeply spiritual and meditative places, created with small fine brush work that is, in itself, almost trance inducing.
