New Works: Matt Tullis and Leslie Reuther


The Capitol Art Alliance presents
New Works: Matt Tullis and Leslie Reuther
May 25 - June 15, 2009.
Closing Reception June 12, 5pm-7pm

Typography is the primary visual element in both Tulllis and Reuther's artworks. Matt Tullis assembles typographic artifacts with various found-objects to create compositions that recall the persona and mystique of old signage. Leslie Reuther uses letters and words to create spatial and literary passages in her new atmospheric landscapes. The artists' mutual love of typography gives this exhibition an interesting underlying concept, while the difference in scale and material create a visually compelling installation.

Opus Stratum, New Works




The Stratum Series is a group of paintings inspired by a four month residence at Harlaxton College in Lincolshire, United Kingdom. The word stratum refers to layers of tone and text created with repeated application of paint and graphite used to represent the layers of atmosphere and landscape represented in the work.

These new works are now on display with related works by Mike Nichols in the Grand Hall of Harlaxton College in Lincolnshire, England. On display in conjunction with the "Student Art Exhibit" from Spring 2009.
