SUMMARY:THURSTON BELMER: THE BEST OF ALL POSSIBLE WORLDS
DESCRIPTION:Denise Bibro Fine Art in Chelsea is pleased to announce Brooklyn artist Thurston Belmer’s first solo exhibition\, THE BEST OF ALL POSSIBLE WORLDS. The show will run May 16 – June 15\, 2019. \nBelmer provokes the viewer to be introspective… personal. His paintings deal with loss\, alienation\, and the absurd. \nThurston’s work explores the journey of self-introspection\, and the inability to find universal meaning. His work is mysterious and ominous. His deftly rendered interiors and figures are crisp in line\, and volumetric in shape and form. His compositions are rich in colors of burnt umbers\, greys\, and deep reds that accentuating their resolve and baroque-like sensibilities. Belmer’s organization of space is the provocateur of the narrative of his paintings. \nHe articulates that he’s not particularly religious and inspired by classic literature particularly the novel Moby Dick. As he states his work “…carries the aesthetic weight of art historical movements that were most notably the baroque…. His attraction to this baroque aesthetic is in its inherent severity and moral solidity that he can contrast with the world that is only solid in appearance…” while his aesthetic is inspired by Moby Dick\, his organization of space is more the aesthetic architecture of Camus. \nHe provokes the viewer to explore the mysteries of life and circumstance personally. “…He rethinks human inadequacies that build boundaries in the first place and that lonely existential\, personal place that allows fear to push individuals to dominate\, subjugate and control…” Belmer’s paintings are his “…conduit\, through which our human experience grows…” \nHis work has been exhibited nationally including Salomon Art Gallery\, New York\, NY; Murray State University – Clara M. Eagle Gallery\, Murray\, KY; Danforth Museum of Art\, Farmington\, MA; Kemper Art Museum\, St. Louis\, MO; Seton Gallery – University of New Haven\, IL; Institute of Art Chicago\, IL; Shore Institute of Contemporary Art\, Ashbury Park\, NJ; and the Hinge Gallery in Saint Louis\, MO among many others. His work has been published in Hyperallergic\, Direct Art Magazine\, Artefuse\, Beautiful Savage Magazine\, Artribune\, Hesa Imprint Magazine – Helsinki Finland\, and Flavorpill. He received his Master of Fine Arts degree from Washington University\, Saint Louis\, MO and his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Lyme Academy College of Fine Art in Old Lyme\, CT. \n

SUMMARY:CHUCK WALKE: NEOREALISM
DESCRIPTION:Denise Bibro Fine Art in Chelsea is pleased to exhibit works by Chicago artist\, Chuck Walker\, in his solo exhibition NEOREALISM. \nWalker is a seasoned artist. In the past referred as a rogue artist… a bit unconventional. His current work has edginess\, but there is a veteran mellowness of a painter in the trenches without compromising skill\, intellect or human content. Walker’s paintings are informed with only what one can obtain from experience.  An early review in the Art Examiner by John Brunetti speaks well of the artist\, “…. Often emphasized\, this misrepresentation of Walker’s working methods has been a convenient distraction ……from serious critical analysis of his often-diverse body of socially uncomfortable images\, while overlooking\, and in the process debasing\, the conceptual intelligence and formal complexity that anchor Walker’s bravura paint handling.” \nWalker paints with passion and imagination. His subjects are humble and heroic. They are intersective and not so easy to detect. They can be romantic\, venerable\, and self-absorbed. Their stances may be awkward\, their eyes closed\, their faces turned. Often a deep past is suggested\, or a happening coupled with an unexpected feeling of what is to come. Most often there is always psychological drama and tension. As Sue Taylor\, from ARTnews once said\, “…Walker’s brand of realism is somewhat akin to Eric Fischl’s grim vision\, where stylistic inaccuracies also parallel disturbing ambiguities in subject manner…Walker’s approach\, unlike Fischl’s\, is sympathetic\, not sardonic. Clearly\, he feels tenderness for these stoic figures\, male or female\, images dredged up from the inner recesses of his mind and lovingly scumbled and troweled onto the canvas.” \nThe viewer seems to be eavesdropping. His subjects often display a mix of emotions…. it could be one of angst or another of reverie. He is interested in the soul\, which like his paintings\, is not obvious or hard to find in the multilayers of imagery. \nAs in his earlier work\, his use of chiaroscuro conveys the solemn\, mysterious\, and foreboding tension of the figure. His current work still conveys this\, but also depicts layers of color and suggestion of movement yet to happen or that which may have already happened. There is often an eerily unsettledness in his work that provokes the viewer and invites you to be tantalized and engaged. In this regard\, Walker still has the same qualities that critics spoke of in his earlier years but now he has broadened his oeuvre of paining to include new dialogues that appear to be mannered but current at the same time. Mystery is still thick in the air. \nChuck Walker’s work has been exhibited at numerous venues\, including the Rockford Art Museum\, IL; Hyde Park Art Center\, Chicago\, IL; Chicago Cultural Center\, IL; Chicago Botanic Garden\, IL; Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art\, IL; Contemporary Center for Art in St. Louis\, MO\, and Evanston Art Center and Artspace\, IL to name a few. His work is included in various private and public collections\, such as the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art\, IL and the Tampa Museum of Art\, FL. Walker’s work has been discussed and reviewed in Art News\, New Art Examiner\, Chicago Tribune\, Chicago Sun Times\, and Art in America. Walker went to the Art Institute of Chicago\, IL.
