Solo Show: Quick to Listen - A Collection of New Works by Nathan Bertling
Published on March 2, 2022
ARC Living Artist Nathan Bertling is holding a solo exhibition titled "Quick to Listen".
"Under the noise and chaos of our current culture, this body of work began in 2019. Born from an impulse to find respite in what was quiet and close, I sought signs of life hiding among the overlooked and unseen...When the pandemic erupted in 2020, interrupting life as we knew it, my painting slowed to a halt...2021 proved to be more about apprehending what was needed and less about imposing my artistic will. The paintings now asked more of me: lengthening my patience as they slowed my hand; widening my trust as they deepened my care. As we move into the rest of 2022 and beyond, my hope is that these canvases might convey something of my gratitude for their repose – reflecting the lesson in listening they worked in me."
The exhibition runs from March 1 -12, 2022 at Dacia Gallery, 621 E 11th St, New York, NY.
