John Bonick and Tim Yankosky
June 4 – July 11, 2014
Opening Reception: Wednesday, June 4, 5:30 - 7:30 PM
Andrea Schwartz Gallery is pleased to announce a two-person exhibition featuring new work by John Bonick and Tim Yankosky opening Wednesday, June 4, 2014.
“In my work, any one element of a painting becomes entangle with every other element and every other choice.”
—John Bonick
In this body of work, John Bonick examines natural uncertainty and entanglement. Drawing from his knowledge on quantum reality, Bonick explores the idea that elementary particles do not have pure states, but rather have only probabilities of various states. This leads to uncertainty and entanglement, in which individual parts cannot be described independently. Bonick expresses this through the overlapping lines, which entwine with every other element in the composition.
(More of his works may be found on his portfolio page.)
“My materials are the driving force and inspiration behind the work I create.”
—Tim Yankosky
Tim Yankosky was initially inspired to work with vintage metal rulers as a way of communicating his feelings of being socially judged and measured. Now, as he continues working with this medium, Yankosky has become “obsessed” with the process and materials. He enjoys the repurposing of old into new, contemporary forms that are visually pleasing to the eye and to see how far he can push the material from its original purpose. The resulting works represent both content and construction.
(More of his works may be found on his portfolio page.)
