The Art & Design Faculty Exhibition, which opens tonight in the Shore Gallery on the ACU campus, features group of deluge paintings by Robert Green. These three recently completed works are part of an ongoing series dedicated to the deluge theme. Like my prior works, these share much in common with Chinese landscape a paintings. Each has a vertical format and highly abstracted references to mountains, water, and various atmospheric conditions.
Marking systems typically used in map-making allude to these various landscape features. These do so in ways that shift in perspective.
The time-intensive work necessary to complete these paintings was supported by Cullen Grant from Abilene Christian University.
