Artwork by Scott Wolniak and Carris Adams
In Gallery 1, "Scott Wolniak: Crosscurrents," is our second solo exhibition of Scott Wolniak's work. Wolniak's newest abstract paintings are outward projections of interior spaces, and vice-versa, that explore the Chicago-based artist's interest in the ways in which abstraction can convey a sense of rhythm, transformation, dissolution, groundlessness, and internal movement. These lively, densely-layered paintings oscillate between their indexical, physical surfaces and illusory fields of depth.
Opening September 10, closing October 21.
In Gallery 2, Goldfinch is proud to present our third solo exhibition with Carris Adams, "Signs All Kinds." Taking the form of a dramatic, gallery-spanning installation of approximately 50 black and white, enamel works on Dura-lar, Adams' Gallery 2 solo show continues her longstanding exploration of language, space, visibility and legibility through a painter's lens. For this exhibition, Adams shares an ongoing body of work begun in 2020, during the earliest phases of Covid lockdown, that was never explicitly intended for exhibition. Instead, they have served as a personal collection and archive consisting of isolated words that, as the artist notes, are "meant to inspire, to reference, to research, to push, to pull. Some will transition into paintings, drawings, titles, sculptures, fantasies of works that are too expensive to produce, prints and installations.... (It is) a collection of facings that looked at me, and I looked back at it."
Opening September 10, closing October 21.
Friday & Saturday: 12-4
