| Eric Aho, Wilderness Studio, End of Winter, 2015, oil on linen, 50 x 60 inches |
The work of Eric Aho was first introduced to me
recently. His show, Wilderness Studio, is up at DC Moore until November 4th. This is also another painting show that is
simply not to be missed. These large, gestural
pieces are rich in intelligent color choices and satisfying mark making. I was really impressed with not only the
intensity of the work, but for the allowance of resting space for the eye. My favorite two pieces happened to be of
cabins in the woods in winter. (Surprise,
surprise!!!!) The super rich blaze red
orange paint sharing the canvas with large, flat, complimentary aqua blue made for such an
exciting, vibrating image. I also loved
the dark flat shape of the structure, indicating multiple planes of wall with only
slight changes in outline angle. Don’t take my
word for it… go to DC Moore on 22nd street in Chelsea and see!!!
