GEOMETRIC ABSTRACTIONS: THE ARTWORK OF CHUCK FISCHER

Tuesday, April 18th  – Saturday May 6th, 2023

Opening Reception: Thursday, April 20th, 5:00 – 8:00 p.m.

Atlantic Gallery announces the opening of a solo exhibition of new works by mixed media artist Chuck Fischer. Fischer’s geometric abstract constructions break the plane of two-dimensional painting and are composed of colored, textured, and multi-layered elements made from common materials such as wood, copper, and aluminum. He creates visual complexity by varying the depth, color, and texture of each piece to draw the viewer into the work. He never sketches before starting a new piece but trusts his intuition and the materials at hand to guide him as he creates works of spatial balance and harmony. The show features Fischer’s most recent work from 2019-2023.  His work was recently featured in the fine art magazines, Artists Magazine, and Woven Tale Press.  Earlier in his career, Fischer created 9 pop-up books including Great American Houses and Gardens (Rizzoli/Universe) and Christmas in New York (Little, Brown & Co.). His designs are in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian’s Cooper Hewitt Museum and Museum of American History, and in the Artist Book section of the Library of Congress.
