(New York, NY) Gallery North is pleased to present Terence Netter: French Perspectives. Utilizing a distinct combination of simplicity and abstraction, Terence Netter creates paintings that are both captivating and intriguing. Abandoning photo-realism, Netter strives to take the viewer’s eye and mind “beyond the horizon”, guiding them from the visible to the invisible world. Netter hopes that after viewing his paintings, the mind will develop a sublime reality in which both peace and tranquility can be felt.
For a portion of each year, Netter lives in France, where he painted the collection of work showcased in this exhibit. Inspired by his surroundings, Netter’s style shifted toward creations that evoke mindful thought and deep contemplation. In a recent statement, Netter says, “I hope that the viewer will look beyond the local reference to where each of us can only go alone.”
Terence Netter has been an artist and educator for the majority of his life. He has taught at several universities across the country, as well as internationally. Throughout his career, Netter’s inspiring work has been the focal point of many critically acclaimed, solo exhibitions.
Gallery North is open Tuesday – Saturday 10 – 5 and Sunday 12 – 5.
