Verne Dawson : Apalachicola to Zirconia

16 Mar-27 Apr 2013

Overview

Victoria Miro is pleased to present an exhibition of new work by Verne Dawson, the artist's third with the gallery. An inherent storyteller, Dawson is a painter of landscapes, portraits, calendars, allegory, myth and pre-history - often in regard to astronomy and mathematics. He weaves together elaborate narratives in his paintings that entwine the legend of the past with a discourse of the present, and in the case of the works on view here, a glimpse of a possible future.
