With PROCESSES INTERSECTING SPACES well into its final week, it’s the last chance for fans of our five amazing artists to fall in love — and welcome great art into their homes. The latest such acquisition, soon bound for the West Coast, is this marvelous canvas from JOSEPH EGGLESTON. Part of a newer series inspired by his favorite horror flicks, this painting offers an imagined scene from 1996’s “The Craft.” Says the artist of the larger works in the set, “All of these paintings are created from using multiple image stills [from the film] to make something old anew, like rearranging puzzle pieces. In fact, some sections are completely made up but still capture a feeling of nostalgia and a fondness of where it was derived. I opt for the long landscape-style canvas to recreate the feeling of a ‘widescreen’ video format and place figures in different positions to suggest movement. My desire is to try and make it feel like we are peeking in on a moment in time that has been captured with some wild paint strokes.” But while every cult classic deserves re-viewing, the streaming platform that is our Wall is taking down these titles after this Friday. So come in and log on while you can!
