Andy Mister’s Snowing Sun is open through August 13th @lowellryanprojects #lagallery Lowell Ryan Projects is pleased to present a #walkaround #tour of Snowing Sun, a solo exhibition by Beacon, NY-based artist Andy Mister. This will be Andy Mister’s first exhibition with the gallery and in Los Angeles. Consisting of twelve works on paper mounted on wooden panel, straddling the line between painting and drawing or as the artist clarifies “drawn paintings,” the works in Snowing Sun explore the concept of a visual depiction of a landscape as if through the lens of a poet. Andy Mister’s imagery is taken from various sources, in this exhibition horticultural magazines and friends’ photographs from a trip are utilized, however the artist’s interest lies not in the specific origin of an image, but the process of its refraction through replication. Color schemes are reminiscent of the tones of paper one would find at a Xerox shop in the pre-internet area, but while Mister’s process of reproduction is laborious in nature, his skill is evident in the illusion of effortlessness and the surrealist quality of the final works. Mister, who holds degrees in English Literature, Philosophy and Creative Writing, approaches his work through the mind of a linguist. His artistic method of reproducing imagery becomes a tool to describe an image. He is not attempting to create a visual replication of a sublime experience, but instead create an interpretation of that encounter. 4619 W.
