T
he Mann – Gandy – Wilson: Three Person
Exhibition at Gallery 1261 represents an artistic
reemergence for the participating artists.
Jeremy Mann recently returned after a month of
traveling through Europe and Russia, and stopped
briefly in Portugal for a workshop with some of
the art world’s greatest minds. “I’ve taken a new
approach to my work...One thing I’ve always been
passionate about is the importance of the reference,
more importantly, the days, weeks, months and years
spent leading up to the moment before the act of
painting actually begins is a weighty 70 percent of
the piece itself,” says Mann of his new work. “I’m
putting more heart, importance and ingenuity intothe obtaining of these references before beginning
a painting, while stressing self-focus and ignoring
most social media.”
The three-artist show marks the beginning of a new
series for Timothy Wilson. “In somewhat of a self
examination, I have been investigating my varying
and disparate approaches to different subjects; plein
air painting, figure painting, expressive abstractions
and interior spaces,” Wilson says. “Some pieces
veer more toward the memory of the figure, while
others more directly reference the experience of the
external realm.” His oil painting Maelstrom, among
others, will be featured in the exhibition.
For Greg Gandy, the show will be a culmination ofA new beginning
