Paul Kos: Tuning the Fork

Artist Reception | Saturday, March 5, 2022 | 5–7 pm

Anglim/Trimble Gallery is pleased to announce Tuning the Fork by Paul Kos, an exhibition of recent sculpture, video and works on paper in parallel with earlier works.

A recent sculpture, ACCORD (Fir, Willow & Cedar), 2021 was inspired by storms and drought at 7000 feet in the High Sierras. Kos responded to how “each element had great visual presence, and commanded attention." Here in his own words, we find “the artist as hunter-gatherer," since this piece is entirely comprised of found objects. “This trio of Trees," for Kos, carries a metaphor for the voices of survival in damaging storms. “I could almost hear the cracklings in the forest.”

Similarly, Pathfinder, 2021 took form and shape from snow to paper.

And on a lighter note, chess and pétanque pieces are in ear-shot of an accordion!
