Art Exhibit: EDGES – Heather Cline

OPENING RECEPTION: Saturday, March 29th, 2:00pm to 4:00pm.  EXHIBITION RUNS: Saturday, March 29th to Saturday, May 3rd.

We hope you will join us on Saturday, March 29th to celebrate the opening of Heather Cline’s latest exhibition at the gallery, EDGES, which continues her explorations and observations of the prairie landscape from the air.  Cline’s aerial paintings poetically fuse form and subject.  Dipping her brush equally into the histories of impressionistic realism and formalist hard-edge abstraction, her synthesis of these stylistic traditions is mirrored in the landscape itself, in the way that the natural features of the terrain are knitted into the grids and ordered structures of human development.  It is a dynamic collision that Cline renders with incredible precision, masterful sensitivity to materials, and stunningly luminous colour.  The series quickly become a signature motif for Cline, finding countless admirers locally and nationally.  At once both familiar and fresh, her iconic images nod to the beloved tradition of landscape painting on the prairies with a distinctly contemporary edge.
