Sarah Shepard Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of Selected Works, a solo exhibition of paintings by Bay Area artist Stephen Beal. The grid—ubiquitous, logical, resolute, infinite—acts as inspiration, structure, and image in Beal’s work. In these paintings, the penciled matrices function as vehicles to explore the subtleties of color and brush stroke. Selected Works includes some of Beal’s smaller white paintings, a selection of earlier dot paintings in varied colors, and a series of new black paintings. With grid as structure and paint as subject, this collection of work offers a musical reflection on an illustrious visual form.
