| La Luz de Los Colores: Vanderbilt University Law School |
Vanderbilt University Law School presents La Luz de Los Colores, the fifth installment of an exhibition series curated by Zeitgeist gallery. Opening reception is Thursday afternoon March 13th from 5-7PM.
Will Berry is a Franklin native who has spent years living and painting in New York City, the Luberon Valley in Provence, Oaxaca, and Mexico City where he currently resides. Will's large scale abstract paintings, monotypes, and etchings use color and line to record the subtle changes of color and light in the different landscapes in which he finds himself. "Plein air" sketches done in the Luberon Valley and in fields outside of Oaxaca City are then taken back to the studio and translated into compositions that create a sense of motion tracking the change of light.
This selection of Will Berry's work currently on view in the lobby of the Vanderbilt Law School was recently featured in the Museo Nacional de la Estampa, Mexico in Mexico City. The images reflect time spent particularly on the Caribbean coast, the area around the Xitle volcano, and the Oaxacan Mountains. Three books featuring Berry’s work have been published by Chichicastle Art- Press: The Light of Colors, The Pull of Air, and Agua. The Light of Color is available at Zeitgeist.
