special building is being created for it. It is a celebration of American ingenuity 
and commitment to work. The project seeks to inspire, to invite collaboration,

Reynolds Fine Art
is pleased to present
  
Into the Interior: 
Paintings by
 Daniel Bohman 
and 
Furniture Invitational 
August 30th-October 1st   
 Opening Reception: 
Friday, September 6th, 5-8pm


Reynolds Fine Art is pleased to present Into the Interior, an exhibition with the paintings of Daniel Bohman accompanied by various pieces of contemporary furniture.  

Daniel Bohman's paintings 'revel in a state of transition'. His work is both literal and abstract. Bohman's ability to use architecture and interior landscapes contrasted by his eccentric brush work muddle the ideals of space and perception. Bohman writes, 'I am particularly interested in how pattern can be used as a means of cohesion, but also, when placed in juxtaposition, stimulate complication and chaos. Ultimately I am interested in the picture plane as a transitory space- where objects come and go but the history of the action remains.'

HEAD

Works by Lani Asuncion, Joe Brittain, Cal Crawford, Georgia Dickie,  Cheryl Donegan, Stacie Johnson, Roy Lichtenstein, David Livingston, Laura Marsh, Christopher Michlig

Curated by Jeff Ostergren

The manifold meanings and multiple possibilities of the word "head" - figurative, psychological, metaphoric, sexual, structural, mechanical, geographic are to be put forth and explored in a space which itself has a curious formal resemblance to a head. In a library, no less, the content of which all derives from a head and goes into other heads. Heads produce things.   Ideas, products, experiences, moments, emotions.   Heads are where things come from.

September 7 through 28

The Institute Library . 847 Chapel Street . New Haven, CT
