Dolby Chadwick Gallery is thrilled to announce Bretonian Slip, an exhibition of new work by Gonzalo Fuenmayor.
Fuenmayor’s large-scale drawings in charcoal immediately captivate viewers with their stirring and unexpected imagery. To create tension between light and shadow, and the appearance of being lit from within, Fuenmayor uses the full range of values offered by the opacity of the charcoal and the white of the bare paper. The sense of depth this generates is enhanced by the scale of the drawings, some of which reach over 7 feet tall and 10 feet wide. In fact, viewers can almost feel the physical effort required to create these monumental works. Evidence of the artist’s hand also reverberates across their surfaces: Fuenmayor trained as a painter, and his astonishingly naturalistic images are distinguished as much by painterly gesture as they are by precision.
Dolby Chadwick Gallery is open by appointment only. Please schedule an appointment for a private viewing or request a virtual tour of the exhibition by emailing info@dolbychadwickgallery.com.
