Gallery Night

So the opening at Conduit wasn't like being in a BET video this time, but it was still really neat. Fahamu Pecou knows how to push some paint. The work was really impressive and it was interesting to talk to him at the opening. We also swung by the Holly Johnson Gallery and quite liked the show there of Precisionist paintings by William Steiger. His buildings were especially appealing with their implied dimensionality. There were obvious connections to Charles Sheeler, but his work also reminded me a bit of Sol Lewitt's variations of incomplete cubes but without the systematization or mathematical functionality. My boyfriend Jonathan, a physics man, saw visualizations of forces and energy in many of the paintings. Cool stuff.
