Eve Aschheim: Recent Works
Saturday, February 1 - Friday, March 14, 2003
Galley hours, Tuesday to Friday, 11 am-4:30 pm, and Saturday and Sunday, from 2pm-5 pm while the University is in session.  

Eve Aschheim: Recent Works presents a selection of paintings, drawings, and photograms by a young artist who plays in the most delicate fashion with spatial dimensions and relationships. Her new paintings feature gestural marks - dashes or ellipses in shades of blue and gray - which possess a subtle weight, on white grounds. In contrast to this pure abstraction, Aschheim's drawings are more referential; they suggest un-buildable architectural systems, with such a density of lines and planes that the space seems to simultaneously compress and expand, suggesting expansion within an incarcerated space.     MORE…
