Landscape painter Lynn Boggess opens an exhibition of new work at The Haen Gallery, with a reception on Thursday, Oct. 15.
Press release from the gallery:
The Haen Gallery, located in downtown Asheville, North Carolina, is proud to present its latest exhibition, Lynn Boggess: New Work 2015. The exhibition will have an opening reception on Saturday, October 17th from 5:30-7:30pm, and will run through November.
Lynn Boggess is one of the most unique and noteworthy American landscape painters of the 21st Century. He resides in West Virginia, a state whose diverse mountains, forests, and rivers provide abundant inspiration for the artist’s plein air paintings. In place of brushes he uses palette knives and trowels to thickly layer the broad sweeping strokes and exquisite fine detail that capture all the colors of the seasons in rushing rivers, snow covered hillsides, and thick forest vegetation. Mr. Boggess’ work is recognized throughout the country for its incredible three-dimensional texture, rendered solely in oils. These remarkable paintings combine elements of Abstract Expressionism and Photorealism to create a style that is totally unique and original.
The Haen Gallery is located at 52 Biltmore Avenue in downtown Asheville, across from Aloft Hotel and between the City Bakery and Chestnut. The gallery is open seven days a week, Mon, Tues & Sat 11am-6pm, Wed-Fri 10am-6pm, and Sun 12-5pm.
With locations in Asheville and Brevard, The Haen Gallery offers the work of established artists whose distinctive and unique style sets it apart from ordinary and imitative efforts. Visit the website at thehaengallery.com.
