Cindy Kane Gravity
Lora Schlesinger is pleased to announce Cindy Kane’s second solo-exhibition with the gallery. Gravity features new paintings on ceramic tiles by the artist. The exhibition opens on Saturday, June 8 and is on view through July 20, 2013. Kane visits the themes of family life, anxiety about the environment or politics, and the repetitive patterns in nature. Her work exudes an intimate visual conversation between the mind and the hands, and the exploration of materials. Centered around a 40 x 40 inch piece which serves as the theme of the show, “Gravity” depicts a black bird falling through space, framed by a colorful border which anchors the bird in a perpetual free fall to the earth. Cindy Kane lives and works in Martha's Vineyard, Ma.. She has exhibited nationally with various galleries in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Kansas City, and Denver, and with museums such as the Art Complex Museum in Massachusetts, The Katonah Museum in Katonah New York, and the Hunterdon Museum of Art in New Jersey. In the fall of 2013 Kane will have her first public installation at the Flatiron Prow Art Space in New York City. The gallery is located in the Bergamot Station Art Center, 2525 Michigan Avenue, T3, Santa Monica.
