Event Details

A solo exhibition of new work by Los Angeles-based artist Channing Hansen.

Hansen is a polymath, simultaneously pursuing interests in craft, science and technology. His large hand-knitted textiles are mounted on bare wooden stretchers and presented like paintings. Vibrant abstract forms undulate across the meticulously composed surfaces. For Hansen, the works are a kind of portal “suggesting a physical continuum in which a work of art exists in two, three, and even four dimensions”: a frame through which to look at the world.

Painting on the Edge: A Historical Survey is showing at Stephen Friedman Gallery 1
