Brian Kirk: “Natural Reaction”

Studio 21 - The Art League Gallery

Printmaker and sculptor Brian Kirk manipulates the natural interaction of water and steel to create unique, rust-pattern prints that challenge assumptions of steel’s strength and durability.

Brian Kirk: “Natural Reaction”

Sculptor and printmaker Brian Kirk courts chemical reactions to create ephemeral, phantom-like prints from rusting metal. A marriage of art and science, Kirk’s rust prints bloom in hues of lush amber, ochre, and apricot. “Natural Reaction” will be on view at The Art League Gallery, September 5—October 7, 2018.
