More DescriptionJohn Dilg's paintings feel like landscapes rather than being such. Dilg paints metaphors and abstractions using what he calls a mental archive of essential visual forms, drawing on memory and tonalities of color and the sensations they can convey to create an enthralling, symphonic whole that emphasizes stillness and the continuum of time. The subjects of these works are not the objects that occupy the paintings but the representation of a moment in time in itself. This publication features images of Dilg's Flight Path exhibition at Eva Presenhuber, New York, and an essay by John Yau.
