Cristin Tierney Gallery is pleased to present Cross Cut, an exhibition of new work by Debbi Kenote and Mark Sengbusch. Cross Cut, which features both artists' individual explorations of the language of sculpture through painting, opens Friday, March 8th with a reception from 6:00 to 8:00 pm and continues through April 20th. This marks Kenote’s first and Sengbusch’s second exhibition with the gallery. Both artists will be present at the reception.
“Cross Cut is a nice metaphor for both of our interests in woodworking and our interaction with the 3D plane while painting. We intersect shapes horizontally, quite often through the act of tiling or joining, something quite unusual for painters. Cross Cut is also used in the sense of taking a journey or cutting through history. While working as contemporary painters in New York City, we both find similar landmarks in history to claim as influences (architecture, craft, as well as over a decade shared in NYC).” - Debbi Kenote & Mark Sengbusch
