Ray Burggraf

Opening and Reception: March 4, 2011, 6 – 8 p.m.
Gallery Talk: 7 p.m. Ray Burggraf

The work of Ray Burggraf fits into the realm of abstraction and color theory.  The work depends on the perceptual excitement and tensions of carefully modulated colors, soft and sharp edges, and bulging and dissolving shapes, to create a compelling, yet contradictory, sense of multiple times and spaces. Their influences go back to Josef Albers and the German Bauhaus through the Op Art movement documented by the Responsive Eye show at MOMA in the sixties.
