Newcity Review: Places-From Arcadia
to Urban Landscape
Chris Miller - Newcity
2/2/2009
"The masterly George Clark is the artist who stands
out in this exhibit, showing works that span several decades
of his life as a painter. Like Edward Hopper, he takes us
to streets where the mysterious meets the ordinary, and his
attention to detail will keep those streets alive long after
he has stopped walking them. The large-scale photographs of
John Sagami have a similar, mysterious feeling, but they are
black-and-white, as in film noir, and invite the viewer walk
down the back streets of his dark, urban dream-world that
feels so much like a novel set in Shanghai. Then Pat Rose
takes us back into the sunlight and lets us pretend that even
the neglected margins of urbanity are only there to please
the eye."
