Michael Kohn Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of paintings by artist, Maureen Gallace. This new collection of landscapes is simultaneously a part of the history of American landscape painting as well as embedded in modernist painting process and theory. Inspired by her childhood in New England, Gallace’s subject matter revolves around the home, lush foliage, and calm beaches. Recalling the work of such diverse sources as Milton Avery, Fairfield Porter, Alex Katz and Giorgio Morandi, Gallace’s work also speaks of a time and place which exists somewhere between memory and reality.
Maureen Gallace is an instructor of painting at New York University, and has taught in the Art Department of UCLA. Gallace’s paintings are in the permanent collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Dallas Museum of Art, the Wadsworth Atheneum, and the Whitney Museum of American Art.
