Artist of July: DP's abstractions of nature bridged old and new work

DP Warner's environmental statement work of the 90s and his abstracting of music paintings of the 80s started to become a combined idea. This led to more traditional paintings on canvas in the early 2000s. Picking out really small areas of a landscape to explore, these landscapes appeared abstract in many ways but were in fact realism derived from directly observing these small areas of a scene.

Some of these canvases are quite large, though the scale was a step down from his large installation pieces. These paintings, mostly scenes from Wintergreen Gorge near Penn State Behrend, are acrylics. Much of his paintings from his installations were also acrylics.

These paintings you'll see kinda work as a bridge between DP's work at the end of the 20th century and what he is doing now with more traditional landscapes and plein air that we featured in the first week and will show more of next week, our final week with DP before we head into August.
