Emerson and Atrium Galleries.

Drawing from a broad array of influences spanning from Hieronymus Bosch to Arshile Gorky, Walter Kravitz creates large-scale drawings and paintings based on landscape and figurative images in various states of both abundance and decay. With a surrealist’s openness to spontaneity and intuitive understanding of the subconscious, Kravitz builds these works using exquisitely expressive line work and a restrained and judicious use of color. The viewer is drawn into a world that is fascinating and compelling yet strange and disorienting as well.


Solomon T. Wondimu: Skin Color Project - VA
Ramp Gallery

Working with a palette of more than 1,000 tones originating from close-up photographs of skin, Solomon Wondimu creates mural-sized digital images and paintings that explore the conflicts and assumptions that exist between the eye and the mind around the concept of skin color.
