Ruth Pastine: SPECTRUM DEPTHS at Gallery Sonja Roesch, Houston. Dates: December 5, 2020 – January 30, 2021, extended until February 27, 2021.
From the gallery:
“Pastine’s new series of oil paintings on paper were created during the first months of social isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic. The heightened visual intensity of these paintings speaks to the urgency of ensuing global conditions of the present moment along with her interests in bringing forth and locating luminosity from the depths of the color spectrum, a seemly antidote affording light and hope amidst adversity of worldwide upheaval. Painting on paper presented a new working methodology for Pastine through an intimacy in scale and immediacy in process.”
