Opening Friday May 6, 2011

"..in a couple of days..", a new site-specific drawing and corresponding studies by John M. Adams at The Adam Lister Gallery

"Excessive Perspective" "Excessive Perspective" highlights new definitions and approaches by artists using and depicting volumes and spatial relationships within their work. Going beyond the basic concept of pictorial logic, these artists address the notion of something or somewhere, while referencing a disconnection to that same thing. A language of space and time, visually divided and multiplied within itself, expresses a mysterious rationality behind the act of production and simplification. The work in this exhibit explores alternative viewpoints to understanding the world around us and the infinite web of parallel realities. John M.
