In a time of reality television, ecological awareness and everyone’s minutes of fame and seconds of attention span, Gary Brewer’s paintings are sensual invitations to pause and contemplate and enjoy the seductive beauty of Nature.
Brewer’s renditions of orchids and anemones, coral, lichens and mosses speak of the most recent biological discoveries, and proffer a visual vocabulary that describes the supra-natural world – a space and time that formerly existed beyond awareness, or only within imaginations. Here, wonderfully composed, bold, colorful and precise, Brewer transforms microscopic detail into a macro view of an elegant, inventive and fresh Nature, one that opens both eyes and minds.
Gary Brewer is collected and has shown nation-wide since his first solo exhibition in 1989 on the campus of the University of California, Santa Cruz. He is a self-taught painter, represented in Los Angeles at L2kontemporary Gallery where he had a solo show in 2007.
