PLUS GALLERY CONCLUDES 2011 WITH RETURN OF FRANK T. MARTINEZ IN "OUT/LINE"

OPENING RECEPTION THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8TH FROM 6-9PM

Plus Gallery welcomes Denver artist Frank T. Martinez back with his fourth solo exhibition "Out / Line" from December 8th, 2011 through January 21st, 2012.  Since debuting with the gallery in 2004, Martinez has become one of the most appreciated and acclaimed abstract painters in the region. Martinez works in series, each an extension but quite different from the last, exploring a particular concept in depth and to its conclusion.  His paintings generally combine multiple layers of paint applied through different techniques, the end result typically loaded with symbolic content that is thoughtful and visually captivating.  "Out / Line" might be his most dense and fascinating body of work yet, the new series exerting intricate line-play that hints at subtleties beneath the surface as well as bold flashes bursting through that create a gorgeous, compelling surface texture.  The new collection is an extremely rich exploration into pattern, architecture, color, and density, all seeming to combine with a poetic tension that stimulates the visual senses. The exhibition is presented in conjunction with the grand opening of the Clyfford Still Museum as an extension of hallmark ideas and the continuation of abstraction as a formidable practice in painting today.  Join Plus Gallery in welcoming Frank T. Martinez back to the gallery with an opening reception and holiday party on Thursday, December 8th from 6-9pm.
