Elizabeth GLAESSNER

Dead Leg, Elizabeth Glaessner’s first solo exhibition with the gallery, brings together fifteen paintings, made over the course of the past two years, with a selection of recent works on paper.

Since receiving her MFA in 2012, Glaessner has undertaken an evolving pictorial search which she seems to have honed in recent years into a focused path which suits her development. In Dead Leg, her color palette has narrowed to blues, greens and browns; her subjects have been refocused around post-apocalyptic situations essentially featuring women in distress; her style, too, has sharpened and asserted itself: the ambitions of her painting are now precise and explicit.
