Greg Drasler at Betty Cunningham Gallery

Cutaway cars seen on a trip to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios inspired Greg Drasler to paint views of vehicles from multiple perspectives at once. Here, a car sits sandwiched between a vast sky and a flat, patchwork patterned plain, reflected as if partially submerged under water. The effect is strangely cinematic and painterly all at once. (At Betty Cunningham Gallery through Aug 5th).
