previewwww.fosterwhite.comDale Lindman: Substance of MatterFOSTER WHITE GALLERY, SEATTLE WA – <strong>Nov</strong> 2-25 The exhibit of Seattle-based painter DaleLindman, Substance of Matter, continues the artist's investigation into the capacity of physicalmaterials to create impasto effects and simultaneously convey atmospheric conditions. Like abstractexpressionists Mark Rothko, Clyfford Still and RichardDiebenkorn in the late 1940s and early 50s, Lindman haseffectively created minimal compositions. They hint atlandscapes but are more formal, often controlled by contrastingtextures applied in bands across the panels.The nonobjective, reductive approach in Lindman's work isless obvious when the surfaces are studied carefully. They are,in fact more like relief sculptures than paintings. He uses aconglomeration of acrylic emulsions, dry pigments and glassmicro beads combined in thick layers. The materials createsurface conditions like cracks and fissures that relate his workto natural materials like rusted metal, patterns of granite,corroded paint and the cracking of sun-baked earth. His titles,such as Approaching Twilight and Thicket of the Sun, expressshifting moments where atmospheric light creates ephemeralexperiences. The resulting sheen of the deep satin surfacesprovoke the kind of introspection one imagines Lindman feelswhen creating such evocative paintings.Dale Lindman received his MFA from the University ofWashington in 1982. He has taught at Pratt Fine Arts Centerand the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. CurrentlyLindman teaches at Bellevue Community College.
