Bruno David Gallery presents FLUID, an exhibition by Chris Kahler, which marks the artist’s return to work on paper.

Constructed with layers that shift between varying opacities and transparencies, the works in the exhibition explore dynamic systems that blur the distinction between the macro and the micro. The viewer contends with whether the work portrays a beginning or an end while mapping an image of transformation, mutation and system conflicts in their mind’s eye.

Unique to this body of work are collaged mixed media that push beyond the surface substrate. Geometric forms are used as a metaphor for the self-replicating shapes within biological systems. Using natural and synthetic colors influenced by the high-tech and digital age, Kahler exposes the overlapping relationships between abstract expressionism, color field, psychedelia, op and pop art to create provocative works on paper.

In conjunction with the exhibition, Bruno David Gallery will publish a catalogue of the artist’s work with an in-depth exhibition history and bibliography.
