The art of "Synecdoche"
In advance of "Synecdoche, New York's" opening this weekend, the Montalban Gallery is presenting "Small Miracles: The Paintings of Adele Lack." Catherine Keener inhabits Lack in the movie, pictured below.
The gallery will supply magnifying instruments to view the 27 micro paintings.
From the gallery notes:
Adele Lack (1965- ) was born and raised in New York. Her first major show would not be until she reached the age of 41 when she would first bring her work to Berlin. Lack’s paintings were once again on display for her next major show at Kunst Galerie. Adele Lack: Anstriche consisted of one inch paintings where visitors were given magnifying glasses to fully see the details of the paintings. Her innovations in scale and content have proven her to be an important contemporary artist.The show runs October 21-26 at The Montalbán Gallery, 1615 Vine Street, Hollywood, CA 90028.
