Sherry Grauer: Shorelines
BAU-XI GALLERY, VANCOUVER September 13-October 2 -
Sherry Grauer is an important Canadian artist who has
exhibited with the Bau-Xi Gallery since 1965. She works on
the borderline between paintings and sculpture, “passing
through relief both ways”, as she puts it. Her new canvas
reliefs take advantage of the best properties of each to convey
a s ense of scale, drama and presence.
Beginning with large, flat sheets of canvas, Grauer shaped
these paintings as topographies resembling the shoreline
patterns of West Coast beaches. Iridescent pigments and
modelled tonal contrasts imply a rush of movement and
direction. The material three-dimensionality is further
emphasized or diminished as Grauer plays off simulations of
light and shadow with the actual ambient lighting in the
gallery Sherry Grauer, The Rocky Shore [detail]
The six-feet acrylic canvases, with their bold and uneasy (1996), acrylic on shaped linen (Bau-Xi Gallery,
colours, move from stylized seascapes to glittering cropped Vancouver, Sept 13-0ct 2)
abstracts. The “paths” she makes, like tidal ripples imprinted
in the sand, are not meant to be followed visually or physically: they are shimmering, gestalted fields
of broken line that imitate sunlight on waves, or splashes of water frozen at the moment of their
greatest extension between fixed shapes. © M ia Johnson
