Chelsea’s Agora Gallery will feature the original work of Brookline artist Sandra Mueller-Dick in The Kaleidoscope of the Mind. The exhibition is scheduled to run from October 29, 2013 through November 19, 2013. The opening reception will be held on Thursday night, November 7, 2013 from 6-8 pm.
About the Artist
Sandra Mueller-Dick’s perfectly concentrated abstract paintings turn a few simple colors into motion on the wall. Mueller-Dick works in streamlined dashes of paint and hues that are only mixed on the canvas, if they are mixed at all. From this simplified language, she creates organic formations of growing and shifting strokes, inspired by shapes found in nature. The artist’s characteristic aesthetic reflects her previous experience with many different techniques, including watercolor, silkscreen printing, oil, and a unique type of collage with painted stretches of canvas. She has incorporated the many kinds of layering into her current acrylic work, which offers a depth of field rarely seen in purely abstract art. Colors run on top of one another and shapes streak away from each other in bursts of energy. Mueller-Dick finds the particular beauty in acrylic’s pure opacity and uses it to its fullest impact.
Sandra Mueller-Dick was born in Pennsylvania and today lives in Massachusetts. In addition to exhibiting her own work across the region, she has been a gallery instructor at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston for several years.
