The National Arts Club is pleased to present a retrospective exhibit of the work of Brooklyn artist Thor Rinden. Rinden’s work, both abstract and representational, is characterized by ingeniously constructed forms and sumptuous color. The exhibit highlights the artist’s three distinctive styles. Rinden’s “woven” paintings interweave strips of canvas to create intricate, quilt-like patterns. His “slab” paintings embed smaller canvasses within larger ones, playing with color and dimension in highly original ways. Finally, Rinden’s figurative paintings and sculptures capture the bright, hard-edged beauty and whimsy of their subjects.
