Bruce Brodie: "When I Heard at the Close of the Day".
Saturday January 24, 4:00 PM - Sunday March 15
Craven Contemporary 4 Fulling Lane Kent Barns Kent, CT
Craven Contemporary is excited to announce “When I Heard at the Close of the Day, a solo show of work by Bruce Brodie.
Brodie is an American painter who makes abstract paintings that lean heavily on light and color. The collection of paintings in the show was all completed in 2025. They were started in anticipation of changing times and took shape amidst the persistent drumbeat aimed at consolidating power and curtailing freedoms. The artist's response, increasingly, was to look to the skies to express anger, locate countervailing forces, and find hope. The paintings come after a multi-year exploration of historic and cultural symbols that enabled pictorial clarity but sacrificed abstraction. In these works, abstraction is restored, save the hint of a horizon line; light, space, and story emerge, without cultural reference points.
