Stephen  Fisher
"Drawings and Prints"

February  15th  -  -  March  22nd,  2008

Opening Reception :  Friday,  February  15th,  2008



Stephen Fisher's
meticulously rendered still life drawings illustrate his fascination with nostalgic, some ordinary, some exotic objects.  The arrangements appear to be casual yet are quite calculated to capture the well-defined shadows and reflections, which result in highly complicated compositions.  These works deliberately question the spatial relationships between objects and surface

Also on exhibit will be a selection of prints of woodland settings.  These moody images of over-grown and secluded locations, demonstrate Fisher's continued fascination with pattern and line, light and shadow.  Bundles of tangled limbs and underbrush occasionally break away to a distant clearing or a rudimentary road carved through the woods.

Mr. Fisher has work included in numerous museum, corporate and private collections including the National  Museum of American Art, Smithsonian Institution, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Brooklyn Museum, and The National Gallery.  He has recently received his 3rd Fritz Eichenberg Fellowship in Drawing and Printmaking from the Rhode Island State Council on the Arts.
