Catherine Redmond
Tregoning & Company takes particular delight in bringing back to Cleveland the art of Catherine Redmond, an esteemed artist who has not been exhibited here in over 20 years. During this long absence there has occurred a major career shift in her artistic expression.
Catherine Redmond is an exceptional artist who was well known in Cleveland for her atmospheric oil paintings depicting Cleveland and Lakewood. She relocated to New York City several years ago to expand on her art as well as teach at the Pratt Institute. Her work has evolved over the years, transitioning away from a colorful palette into grisaille tonality, and ultimately into photography –all the while, never growing static. You may explore this evolution by visiting her website: www.catherineredmond.com. The current body of recent work carries may threads of imagery subtly woven through her photographs. The chromogenic prints selected for this exhibit are captured in black and white: each has a subtle yet powerful narrative depicting the surroundings in the Hudson River Valley where she now lives. Further description of such ineffable images is best left to the viewer, as the pictures speak so compellingly for themselves. This show was co-curated by Laura Sherman and Bill Tregoning, and continues on view at Tregoning & Company through May 6, 2017. |
