The Lowe Gallery in Santa Monica is proud to present the work of organic abstractionist Mark Perlman.
With a rich mixture of intense color and a seemingly bottomless mass of encaustic wax, Mark Perlman explores intricacies of the natural world. Detaching himself from order and never knowing how it’s going to end is how Perlman creates the visual diaries that capture both time and place. Deep etched markings recall prehistoric cave paintings at the same time that bright hues indicate a new day on the horizon. Perlman’s paintings tell a history that belongs to man and nature simultaneously; his paintings are signposts where the human and natural worlds merge.
The show will run through Saturday, Dec. 16. The Lowe Gallery is located at 2034 Broadway.
