of abstract paintings by Shawn Faust, will be on view in the Mezzanine
Gallery from December 6, 2019 – January 10, 2020. The artist will
host a free opening reception on Friday, December 6 from 5-7 PM.
Faust, a resident of Bear, received a 2019 Established Fellowship in
Painting from the Delaware Division of the Arts. The work in this
exhibition represents a shift for Faust, who is best known for his
award-winning representational equestrian paintings. For his new
abstract works, he merges pictorial elements of representation with
non-objective forms as a response to memories and the ephemeral
qualities of life. Faust compares himself to a chef who is changing
the menu by using the same ingredients, tools, and techniques but with
differing results. He explains, “I grant myself permission to
diverge and pivot from one medium to another, experimenting with
process and mark-making in search of my unknown. As a result, I am in
a constant state of flux and possibility.” The Mezzanine Gallery,
open weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., is located on the second
floor of the Carvel State Office Building, 820 N. French Street,
Wilmington. The Gallery will be closed on December 25, 2019 and
January 1, 2020. Image: “Fallen,” 2018, oil, 30 x 40 inches Show
