Rhythm and Flow

Art & Light Gallery is happy to present Rhythm and Flow a solo exhibition of work by Daniel Klewer (Myrtle Beach, S.C.) launching on the Art & Light website and in the gallery at 10:00 AM (EST) on Tuesday, July 8 with an opening reception on Friday, July 11 from 6:00 – 8:00 PM.

Daniel Klewer was born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and majored in art at the University of Wisconsin Green Bay. He also earned a Master of Arts in visual studies degree from Cardinal Stritch University, Glendale, Wisconsin. Klewer is largely recognized for his unconventional painting process, characterized by a shift away from the use of a paintbrush and evidence of brushstrokes. His work often involves applying paint with non-traditional methods, exploring color and texture through various techniques. Daniel’s love of the material properties of paint is evident in his treatment of abstract painted surfaces. He enjoys a meditative, sequential process where the spontaneity of the material is allowed to influence the direction of the work.

Daniel states, “Light and color are driving forces in my work as I explore chromatic and tonal shifts. Primarily using a brushless paint application that stretches the paint’s physical qualities, the textured surfaces of the paintings document investigations into the relationship between paintings and sculpture. My work flows between vibrant spontaneity and meditative minimalism as it reflects my pursuit of painting as a contemplative, perceptual experience. The composition and colors explore how surfaces can communicate a story.”
