b a u 6: amalgam. new work by chris albert at beacon artist union.

Bau founding member, Chris Albert will be exhibiting a collection of sculpture, and mixed media pieces in a solo show from Saturday, June 11, through Sunday, July 3, 2005 at bau, beacon artist union, 161 Main St, Beacon NY. Opening reception, June 11, 6-9pm

A Beacon resident, Albert has been involved in the Beacon art community since relocating from Colorado in 2003. Albert’s artwork largely consists of drawing, and painting in a variety of media. Working in an abstract manner, Albert uses loosely indicated imagery that becomes fragmented by the effect of adding and subtracting layers, the result being an expressive, fluid piece that speaks to a mood, but can be interpreted in various ways.

For bau 6, Chris Albert is exhibiting mixed media assemblages, and sculpture that examine the notion of conflict on a scale of both global and personal dimension. Clashes of culture, concept, identity; Amalgam explores such collisions by envisioning how opposing realities are often coalesced into a shared existence by necessity.

Images, and additional information will be posted on the news page at www.christopheralbert.com, and at www.beaconartistunion.com.
