@ Gahlberg Gallery
425 Fawell Blvd, Glen Ellyn, IL 60137
Opening Thursday, January 20th, from 6PM - 8PM
On view through Saturday, February 26th
Best known for her sparse use of bright colors in otherwise empty black or white backgrounds, Chicago-artist Pamela Fraser takes color as her main subject and plays with the logic of established color systems. Fraser’s newest work continues a long-standing investigation inspired by her research in comparative color theory (from philosophy to perception to design to everyday use). With her resistance to the authority of any single convention, style, or visual code, Fraser examines the various ways that color operates and is operated on. Her approach explores the indefinable quality of color when it becomes detached from its meanings and inherited logic.
