Ilana Zweschi | Look Upon This Body as a Machine

Ilana Zweschi’s second solo exhibition with the gallery, ‘Look Upon This Body as a Machine,’ opens First Thursday, September 3, from 6 – 8 pm with the artist in attendance. Zweschi’s abstract paintings derive from her use of handwritten algorithms to determine precise arrangements of brush strokes and complex color gradations. Influenced by her studies in math as well as art, she began as a figure painter before realizing that her interest in logic could be incorporated into painting. In tandem with her exhibition, the gallery will host an artist talk on Saturday, September 5 at noon, which is free to attend and open to the public. ‘Look Upon This Body as a Machine’ is on display until Saturday, September 19.
