Bowery Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of Deborah Rosenthal’s new paintings in oil and gouache. The exhibition begins on February 25 and continues through March 22.

Deborah Rosenthal’s essential theme has always been metaphor’s mysterious power. In paintings – as well as drawings, prints, and stained glass – she’s shaped signs and symbols that reflect a modern woman’s feelings about experiences near and far, old and new.

In her recent paintings, she’s uniting fresh themes with older ones, ranging from the astral to the pastoral, from the Biblical stories that have obsessed her for decades to images and ideas gleaned from more recent travels to Rome and Mexico City. Here Rosenthal’s inimitable abstract language – praised for decades in publications ranging from Art in America to The New York Times – finds unexpected accents and intonations as she absorbs into her private world the saturnine profiles of pre-Columbian figures, the towering mountains of Sung dynasty painting, and the hyperbolic forms of Borromini’s Baroque architecture.
