May Gallery: Strike, Dip and Draw: Works by David Poppie
In the past few years artist David Poppie has been working with different series involving matchbooks, colored pencils, and paint stir sticks. Each has its unique, defining "mark" within the pieces; from the anonymous strike of the used matchbook, the exposed pencil lead of the pencil, to the dipping of the paint stick into reclaimed paint. Each series projects multiple objects being placed together to form a composition. Works by David Poppie are on view at Wistariahurst during the months of May and June.
David Poppie is represented by Pavel Zoubok Gallery in New York and the Richard Levy Gallery in Albuquerque, New Mexico. His work has been exhibited nationally and internationally. He has been reviewed in the New York Times and has been featured in Sculpture Magazine. He lives and works in Easthampton, Mass.
