Artist David Kroll’s paintings explore the relationship between humanity and nature. In hyper-realistic, oil-on-linen paintings (often depicting birds, fish, or bunnies), he asks about our place in the world today, and about what man has left for smaller creatures as we continue to reshape the world to our liking.
The newest works of David Kroll, on display through April 30 at Lisa Sette Gallery, are contained in a handsome exhibition combining depictions of gorgeous everyday objects (for example, a ceramic pot, tea cup or china bowl) with wildlife and bits of plant. The juxtaposition of the mundane with vibrant flora and fauna make for stunning and evocative art.
Thursdays, 7-9 p.m.; Tuesdays-Fridays, 10 a.m.-5 p.m.; Saturdays, 12-5 p.m. Starts: April 7. Continues through April 30, 2011
