Blue Mountain Gallery Presents Owen Gray, 3/27-4/21

OWEN GRAY's new paintings, "LOOKING UP, LOOKING DOWN," will be presented at BLUE MOUNTAIN March 27th – April 21st.

According to press notes, Owen Gray's ninth solo show at Blue Mountain Gallery illustrates two perspectives the artist has been engaged in for years. From above, you are looking down at aquatic wild life, musical instruments, overturned boats – all in the thick of a dense, tropical environment. From below, you are looking at freefalling creatures and objects of desire as they whirl every which way. Gray's subject matter is indirectly influenced by the Italian painter Tiepolo, Pieter Brueghel, Hieronymus Bosch, and 17th-century Dutch artists.

Born and raised in Wayland, Mass., Gray has painted in Maine, Massachusetts, and New York, a true East Coast native son New Englander. When he moved to New York, he began to study with Nicholas Carone and Leland Bell at The Studio School.
