ABOVE: A detail of one of Chris Dorosz' "rubber band" paintings. Photograph courtesy Chris Dorosz. ABOVE: A detail of one of Gerald Ferguson's recent frottage paintings in which he has been, technically-speaking 'under painting' (he puts rope or lengths of hose underneath a canvas and rolls paint to make a rubbing). Ferguson began using this technique after years of layering paintings by means of stenciled imagery. Photograph courtesy Gerald Ferguson. ABOVE: An Eric Cameron "thick painting" appears in this exhibition courtesy the Winnipeg Art Gallery. Photograph courtesy Eric Cameron. ABOVE: A teacher with her class at the Chicago Art Institute in front of Georges Seurat's A Sunday on La Grande Jatte, 1884-1886. Pointillism's analysis is pseudo-scientific and even technically erroneous, and yet it produced marvelous art. (NOTE: this is a reference photograph. The Seurat work is, of course, not in the exhibition.) ABOVE: Doug Lewis and salt block-licking horse. Lewis "de-layers" his materials. Photograph courtesy Doug Lewis
