Dining Room into Living Room, Mark Karnes, 2009-2012, acrylic on\u00a0Masonite<\/p><\/div>\n

In fortuitous lulls during the Siberian Express of snow and frigid temperatures here in the Northeast during the past week, I drove six hours to Maryland to see two fantastic exhibits,<\/a> both devoted to “perceptual painting.” One, organized by Matt Klos, tracks the largely unrecognized history of this movement, showing how perceptual painting\u00a0enables\u00a0representational art\u00a0to evoke a liminal, dreamlike intimation of a world around and within the surface of things. That may be a pretentious-sounding way to say that perceptual painters enable you to see what they saw, mostly through direct observation, but they also convey a loving, sustained hunger to evoke something much larger, the poetry of the everyday. I’m getting ahead of myself, though. I want to write a long post about both shows, or maybe several posts, when I’ve tackled some other things on my plate, and this is simply\u00a0a quick reminder\u00a0for anybody within a few hours of Annapolis to invest an afternoon on\u00a0these shows before they come down. It’s some of the most compelling painting being done right now, and it’s also an interesting attempt to further define what “perceptual painting” is, in the wake of earlier shows, such as the one recently at Manifest<\/a> and a year ago at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art.<\/a>\u00a0It kills me not to be able to attend the exhibition events today, but I pass this note along from Matt Klos for anyone able to attend:<\/p>\n

My curator’s talk for <\/span>“A Lineage of American Perceptual Painting”<\/b><\/i> has been moved to Wednesday, February 25th at 5:30pm\u00a0<\/span><\/span>located at St. John’s College in the Drawing Room adjacent to the Mitchell Gallery. There will be ample time to walk through the gallery before and after the talk.\u00a0St. John’s College, Mitchell Gallery, <\/i>60 College Ave, Annapolis, MD<\/i> 21401<\/i>\u00a0<\/i><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A panel discussion for the exhibition will be held this Sunday February 22nd at 3:00pm<\/span><\/span> also located at St. John’s College. Follow signage when you arrive to the gallery… we will either meet in the auditorium or the drawing room depending on turnout.\u00a0<\/span>Although not required please call the gallery to rsvp for both events, 410-626-2556<\/a>.St. John’s College, Mitchell Gallery, <\/i>60 College Ave, Annapolis, MD 21401<\/i><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Lineage” Artists and Panel Discussion participants will include:\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
James Fitzsimmons<\/span>
\n<\/b><\/div>\n
Elizabeth Geiger<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
Philip Geiger<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
Mark Karnes<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
Scott Noel<\/b><\/span>
\n<\/b><\/div>\n
Charles Ritchie<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
Aaron Lubrick and Matt Klos<\/span> will moderate. Several questions will be asked of the panel including this one,<\/span> The painter Jake Berthot in a letter to Ryan Smith once wrote, \u201cThe mind lies and is capable of making a justification for anything. The eye and the hand are incapable of lying. Look with your heart and it will tell you through your eye what your hand needs to do.\u201d\u00a0 Can you talk to us about what you think Mr. Berthot may have meant? What does that statement mean to you?\u00a0<\/i><\/span>I hope you’ll come join the conversation.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Special guests Erin Raedeke<\/a>, David Campbell, and John Lee will also attend the Panel Discussion. These artists currently have work on view at Anne Arundel Community College in the Cade Gallery in an exhibition “Subject & Subjectivity” curated by Matthew Ballou. On the day of the Panel Discussion (Sunday, Feb. 22nd) artists will be on hand in the Cade Gallery to discuss the exhibition starting at 1pm<\/span><\/span>.<\/span> John A.
