“Unminding Sky”: Hyperrealistic Oil Paintings Looking Through Rainy Windshields

“Revisited”. (Painting by Gregory Thielker)

When he’s driving, New York-based painter Gregory Thielker takes in the views that change from moment to moment: the road, the sky, other cars. “Inside the car it’s easy to forget the outside temperature, humidity, the noise of the road”, he says. “But something happens when rain interrupts the view: the lens through which we are seeing is revealed. Water both obscures and highlights the landscape”. Gregory Thielker’s exhibition “Between here and now” will be at Castor Gallery in lower Manhattan from early March 2016.
