January 17 - February 17, 2023
Reception: January 31, 3 -5 PM with a short artist’s talk at 3:30 PM in the gallery
They (Gomukh II), 2022, acrylic on canvas, 30 x 40 in.
The Chan Gallery is pleased to announce Not Yet, a solo exhibition featuring works by Pearl C. Hsiung. As our visiting professor of painting, Hsiung taught Painting I and Topics in Contemporary Painting last fall and will teach Painting I and a new course that she designed called Advanced and Expanded Painting this spring at Pomona College. Please join us for the artist’s reception on Tuesday, January 31st, from 3-5 pm.
“Not Yet features two paintings, They (Gomukh II), 2022, a wall painting on canvas, and Themses, 2019, a large-scale free-standing work. Both feature glacial landscapes that differ in their imaging approach yet pose similar questions regarding the sustainability of the landscape as an aesthetic genre, conceptual site, or physical space. In this discourse, Not Yet asks us to think about the interdependence of land, human, and the more-than-human in this ecological moment. Both the title and exhibition work limn the continual emergence and refusal of arrival that flow through current conditions, consequences, and urgencies.”
