Richard Heller Gallery presents new oil paintings by Brooklyn based artist
Amy Bennett. These works consist of various scenarios unfolding within an
imaginary suburban neighborhood. Bennett has created a tabletop scale model
on which the paintings are based.
³The model becomes a stage on which to develop the psychological
implications of belonging to a particular family, with all of its dramas,
struggles and familiar routines. I think: this tree will be taken down after
an old man crashes into it; a father will transform this lawn into an ice
skating rink; this house will be abandoned after its residents are
scandalized on the evening news.² - Amy Bennett
This is Amy¹s debut solo show in Los Angeles. She also shows with Galleri
Magnus Karlsson in Stockholm, Sweden.
