Spirit: from the Infinity Series
OPENING EVENTS: SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 20th, 5-7 pm
Exhibition on view November 20, 2010- February 6, 2011
Bill Armstrong’s Infinity series transforms re-photographed and appropriated images to create ephemeral, abstracted and de-materialized color fields and strongly evocative iconic figures.
