A reception will beheld on Nov. 17, from 6-8pm.Urban is a mixed media artist whodepicts the landscape in a contemporaryapproach through his use of a variety ofart materials and montage. He is directlyinspired by his immediate surroundingsas viewed by him via a run, hike, riverexcursion, or bicycle ride. Much of the newwork on view in this exhibit is a result of hisenjoyment of long bicycle rides throughoutUpstate South <strong>Carolina</strong>, and these ridesinspired the title of the exhibit, In Coordinationwith the Landscape.Both the artworks and the processesUrban uses to create them are a reflection ofthe landscape itself. In his paintings, Urbanbuilds up the works over time through manylayers of transparent color; specific areaswill be sanded, scraped, and rubbed to reveallayers underneath.
