Peter Brooke: Light Slides
On View: April 30 – May 29, 2021
The artist will be present on May 15 & 22 from 1-4 pm to chat with visitors.
Brooke, as always, manages to draw viewers into a world of imaginary scenery capturing not only the physical beauty but also the evanescence of each feeling. The absence of any figures or human life allows viewers to become solitary characters in each new environment, allowing them to meditate on the tension between nature and the intangible emotion of impermanence it inspires.
Peter Brooke
Peter Brooke has exhibited his landscape-based paintings regularly for the past fifteen years in Boston, in New York, and in many other sites throughout New England and along the East Coast. During this time the work has evolved considerably, from depictions of dark, foreboding Delaware wetlands to vaulting atmospheres gathering above the Irish coast to inventions, in the vocabulary of the Vermont hill country, in which trees appear to be forming out of thin air or dissolving out of existence.
