Texas-based, internationally-recognized artist Christian Eckart will discuss his current exhibition of painting-sculpture hybrids and installations. Eckart's explorations are founded in an interrogation of various tropes of 20th-century abstraction, while attempting to delve into underlying imperatives that have persevered in certain types of "art making" since the Renaissance, including a need to address the ineffable and unrepresentable.

Christian Eckart: The Absurd Vehicle and Other Propositions is on view through March 5.
