Arturo Mallmann: Dystopian Dreams


Craighead Green Gallery

Opening Reception, January 6, from 5-8 p.m. On view from January 6 through February 10. 

Arturo Mallmann // Dystopian Dreams

Arturo Mallmann’s paintings contain a deliberate kind of depth that is both formal and sociological. In his upcoming exhibition, “Dystopian Dreams”, Mallmann combines his impression of the recent world with his practice. Mallmann’s work is made by layering acrylic paint with resin, sanding, rinsing, and repeating. On his process, he states: “This interaction is what holds the painting together and makes it a community of images embracing each other in the same journey.” These “communities” are also the bedrock of his subject matter. His landscapes hold fragile groups in their hands; ecosystems colliding with figures. Mallmann’s interest in decay and creation (as suggested by the title of this exhibition) is on full display: from peaceful fishing docks to urban decay to lonely sunsets.

Arturo Mallmann is a Uruguayan born painter that now resides in California. He has shown all over the United States, primarily in California, New York, and Texas.
