Earth On Fire
New Paintings by Mary Giammarino
July 29th - August 11th, 2022
Four Eleven Gallery is proud to present Earth On Fire: New Paintings by Mary Giammarino. This is Giammarino’s fourth summer show with the gallery.
Of this new body of work Giammarino says, “Painting in these times feels very bourgeois. Our earth is burning, yet we go about business as usual. I hope I add this awareness and concept to my work, whether it’s representing the tentative and fragile beauty of the world, or just by adding more reds to my paintings.”
Giammarino’s devotion to light and color is evident in all of her paintings, reflecting her passion and devotion to capturing the exquisite drama of nature’s fleeting moods. Grounded in an Impressionist palette and technique of placing one color next to another, her work is less idealized than traditional Impressionism and contemporary by design. While Giammarino makes her home in Vermont, she’s returned to Provincetown to paint, study, and teach every summer since 1989.
OPENING RECEPTION: FRIDAY, JULY 29th, 7-9pm
