For sheer beauty, no other current Chelsea show can beat Alexis Rockman<\/a>\u2019s watercolor and acrylic landscape paintings, part of his exhibition at Jack Shainman Gallery<\/a>.\u00a0 Attracted by washes of bright watercolor and acrylic, visitors are drawn into environments around the world that have experienced climate change-related fires or agricultural burns.\u00a0 Oil and cold wax paintings in the main gallery juxtapose towering, burning landscapes with diminutive humans in boats on rivers in the foreground, helpless witnesses to the devastation.\u00a0 A final gallery of \u2018field drawings\u2019 from the Great Lakes region were created from a kind of paint made with local materials \u2013 sand from the lakes or coal dust from a power plant \u2013 which he used to picture local fish, birds and more.\u00a0 Part elegy at what is being lost, part appreciation of the beauty that remains, Rockman\u2019s new work is a powerful reminder of the fragility of nature.\u00a0 (On view in Chelsea through Feb 28th<\/sup>.)<\/p>\n
