Paul Thiebaud Gallery is pleased to present "Baja Nights and Other Tales: Paintings and Drawings by Roy De Forest", with remarks at 3:30 PM. Renowned for his unique depictions of human figures, dogs, birds, and other animals in anthropomorphized, folk-like settings, the exhibition will feature works selected primarily from the final three decades of the artists career. Recognized as one of the most original and influential painters of his generation, Roy De Forest's (1930-2007) paintings and works on paper employ vivid color and line to convey myth and storytelling set in fantastical landscapes. The exhibition will be on view through March 13, 2027.

Paul Thiebaud Gallery is please to present “Looking through the Window Glass: Works by Stephen Arnau”, with remarks at 3:30 PM. Employing broad areas of bright color and line across his canvases and folded paper sculptures, Stephen Arnau employes divided shapes, patterns, and intersecting forms to create complex compositions that play with our perception of presence and illusion. Inspired in part by early modernist abstraction and post war color field painting, Arnau’s works also draw on fundamental geometries to create a unique synthesis of visual expression. The exhibition will be on view through March 13, 2027.

Friday, January 22 | 11:00 PM - 12:00 PM
