SEPTEMBER 7 – OCTOBER 23, 2010
Artist Reception: Saturday, September 11, 2010, 4 – 6 PM.
Pentimenti Gallery is pleased to present a solo exhibition with artist Jacob Lunderby. The show opens on September 7 and run through October 23, 2010. The artist reception will be held on Saturday, September 11 from 4 to 6 PM.
Sentimental Confidence finds Jacob Lunderby offering a take on urban landscape in ways that use photographs as a starting point. He captures street images of Philadelphia as source material. Some of the images are digitally messed with before they are transferred by brushstroke to create something wholly new, but only to a certain extent. This art covers two sequences, one that uses quiet and under-stated imagery that evokes chaos, banality and desolateness, and another that features ebullient, vibrant urbanization that emit a zealous energy. The resonance of Lunderby’s paintings is not only to be found in the use of images, but in an attempt to contemplate realities and social forces.
Jacob Lunderby received his MFA from the University of Minnesota and his BFA from Minneapolis College of Art & Design. His recent exhibitions are: Regis Center for the Arts, Minnesota, MN; Abington Art Center, Jenkintown, PA; ICA (Institute of Contemporary Art) Philadelphia, PA; Minnesota Museum of American Art, St. Paul, MN and more.
