Alex Eckman-Lawn
Paradigm Gallery + Studio in Philadelphia is planning a group show that they envision as an antidote to our image-saturated culture, where we consume visual information so rapidly it all starts to become noise. “Scenic Route” will be on view March 27 through May 16 and features innovative takes on landscapes from Erin M. Riley (whose last solo show we featured recently here), Alex Eckman-Lawn, Amze Emmons, and Jason Andrew Turner.
For this exhibition, Riley steps away from her tapestries of R-rated selfies to create solemn representations of highway memorials. Always one to choose subversive or provocative subject matter, Riley invites viewers to contemplate the specters of the open road. Alex Eckman-Lawn offers multi-layered collages that seem to belong to no particular time or place, while Amze Emmons presents paintings of oft-overlooked urban detritus, and Jason Andrew Turner unravels conventional representational painting into something more abstract and elemental.
