A showcase for Mid-Atlantic artists, a painter explores the infinite, an artist focuses on peaceful themes, and collage-paintings examine personal identity
“Gully,” by Freya Grand, included in the show “ Strictly Painting” that brings together 50 Mid-Atlantic artists at the McLean Project for the Arts. With work by 50 contributors, “ Strictly Painting” is an impressive survey of recent output by local artists who are painters. For regular visitors to the area’s visual-art venues, though, the McLean Project for the Arts exhibition may prompt sensations of déjà vu.,” on view through Nov. 12 at Sandy Spring Museum.
A few works that are essentially flat nonetheless conjure a three-dimensional experience. Joanne Kent elegantly arrays tufts of paint in shades of green, and Sondra Arkin positions white circles and black lines on pale blue to plunge the viewer underwater. More traditional are Freya Grand’s pair of realist nature scenes, which focus tightly on small areas of sea or earth. Her “Gully” demonstrates plain old painting’s ability to draw the eye into expertly simulated depths.
