Exhibition Dates: February 21 – March 24, 2007
Opening reception: Friday, February 23, 6 – 8 pm
Gallery Hours: Tuesday - Saturday, 10 am to 6 pm.

On Wednesday February 21st, Betty Cuningham Gallery will open its second show for Joan Snyder. The exhibition, Joan Snyder: New Paintings is comprised of approximately 13 paintings completed by Snyder in 2006.

Snyder's exhibiting career in New York spans over 35 years. Known for her expressive sometimes confrontational style, the paintings are also intimate and deeply felt. This new body of paintings explores the recurring motif of deep ponds which are depicted as literal pools of paint within many of the canvases. Inspired perhaps by the landscape around her studio in Woodstock the paintings reflect a discourse with nature that takes her deep within her own narrative.
