Michael Krueger
Carried Away by the Sea
December 9, 2023 - January 14, 2024

This is Michael Krueger’s first exhibition with the gallery, he will be sharing 8 new works in painting. Michael creates paintings using a unique style of combining thin layers of paint with dry brushing and airbrushing contrasted with thick impasto. The works for this show lean on narrative troupes that explore nostalgia, longing, anxiety, and presentness. The action of painting brings emotional acumen to his process, though mark making and invented painting languages he creates artworks that cultivate human connections. Michael has a long relationship with printmaking and has adapted print processes in his approach to other media. For the past 10 years he has fostered ways to situate traditional printmaking techniques, such as pochoir, stencil-making and engraving in his unique works in painting and drawing.
