About the Item
Dennis Alter's layered and textured oil on canvas paintings are rich with painterly activity. Gestural brushwork, heavy impasto, and layers upon layers of color lend a complexity to each work that invites multiple approaches to viewing. Alter's experimental use of painting tools and techniques -- scraping, carving, impressing -- play an important role in the process of discovery. He describes his process creating "Through the Looking Glass:"
"Dragging a flat edge across a still-wet painted surface
creates the potential for a new entity, a new life.
The surface of the paint in invaded, dispossessed, and
transformed by the act of sweeping across the colors
and volume; destroying things, but creating a heightened
synthesis of them." - Dennis Alter
"Through the Looking Glass" is a contemporary abstract oil painting with predominant colors of yellow, red,
blue. It was exhibited at Perkins Center for the Arts, 2019 Fall Annual Juried Exhibition. It is signed and dated on the back.
Alter is an award-winning artist who has exhibited his work at Perkins Center for the Arts in Collingswood, NJ; Main Line Art Center in Haverford, PA; and Woodmere Art Museum in Philadelphia, PA.
