SUMMARY:FORD CRULL: MANY RIVERS TO CROSS
DESCRIPTION:Happy Hour Gallery is pleased to present a solo show of paintings by New York City/Woodstock NY-based painter Ford Crull   July 30th – August 9th. Ford Crull’s vibrant and meditative canvases bridge the legacy of Abstract Expressionism together with Symbolism to form entirely unique\, narrative canvases imbued with centuries of religion and culture in a spontaneous\, constantly evolving visual metaphor. Once completed\, his large and small paintings take on a life of their own with the viewer: organic tapestries of oil paint imbued with historical symbols as well as Crull’s own private kinetic and emotive painting. His richly vibrant canvases of deep red and blue oil pigments form an alchemic combination of civilisation’s most important religious and cultural iconography\, such as crosses\, circles\, knots\, shields and hearts. These anchors of culture easily float and blend into the beautiful and evocatively pigmented canvas in a conversation with the viewer\, creating a dialogue that transcends space and being. Thus\, Crull’s paintings exist in their own intentional and spontaneous planes of interpretation\, constantly evoking memory and emotion within the bandwidth of each new encounter and interaction with viewers. \nAbout Happy Hour Gallery – Happy Hour Gallery is the Hampton’s newest art gallery\, with it’s inaurgural exhibition launch on July 2\, 2022.
