Kolman & Reeb Gallery is pleased to welcome emerging Minneapolis artist, David Moore, Jr., to the gallery for an exhibition of his abstract paintings.
David, a retired theater artist and philanthropist, initiated his current series of paintings in 2017 after assembling everyday objects into an evolving tableaux: old fabric, bits of lumber, plumbing, packaging, ironwork, abandoned mechanical parts, toy soldiers, and plaster reproductions of iconic sculptures, including a large bust of Napoleon.“My painting process begins by improvising a ‘set’ from this detritus,” David explains. “Then, I transcribe what I see into paintings.
David will donate his sales proceeds to The Minneapolis Foundation.
