 "Expanding the Limits"
Featuring IFA member artist Howard Roblat-Walker with guest artists Ed McAloon and Hayley Perry

Join us at our artists' reception with music by Cathy Clasper Torch | Saturday, July 27 | 5–8 PM | Imago Gallery, Warren

Rotblat-Walker’s work in this exhibition is a continuation of a series that was stimulated by his seeing M.C. Escher's Circle Limit III at Boston's MFA at the time that he was creating kaleidoscopic iterations. He started researching into Escher's approach and uncovered a body of mathematical papers and discussion on the underlying non-Euclidian geometry which Escher employed.

Don't miss his public talk about his work on Thursday, August 1, at 6:30 p.m. at the gallery where he will share his evolution from "iterated image," photo-based digital compositions to what's on display in the gallery. Learn about his progression from initially playing with reflections through straight-forward kaleidoscopic compositions and advanced geometric transformations to the exhibited work using non-Euclidian shapes. His emphasis will be on his artistic process rather than on Photoshop techniques.
 

“The pieces in this series show my own exploration using non-Euclidian patterns developed with the underlying template of an array of Poincaré disks along the lines of Escher's Circle Limit series. My intent, however, is making interesting and appealing designs via transformations of the section of my photo which I have selected rather than being rigorously mathematical."
