SUMMARY:Artist's Talk - M. Mark Bauer: THE\, THE
DESCRIPTION:Artist’s Talk\nSaturday\, July 18th\, starting at 1 pm \nGallery Hours: Thursdays\, Fridays\, and Saturdays\, 12 – 5 pm \nGreat to see in person\, these paintings are not fast-read paintings. Check out a few details on our website\, come in for the full experience. For a complete explanation\, if that’s even possible\, please join us Saturday\, July 18th\, to hear from M. Mark Bauer about his work\, starting at 1 pm. \nWhat the ? \nWhat does it mean? Where DO we stand? \n​Mixed messages\, absurd scenarios\, improbable unrealities – M. Mark Bauer wades into dynamic narratives and an onslaught of incomprehensible untruths\, pervasive and invasive\, redirecting the course of events and outcome potentials at hand.  Mesmerizing rhythmic patterns groove in undulating serenity as wildly complex scenarios unfold in the eight canvases on view. Hybrid creatures and colorful characters cavort in a surreal concoction that speaks to the consequences of our collective insanity on each other and the natural world while sly humor entertains with bursts of sudden recognition. The Artist observes as Eye-hook\, Snake Tongue\, Bo Peep and a Sheep and The Big Bad Wolf join in this precisely executed spectacle of chaos.
