Scott Stack: Night Vision

17 March - 22 April 2006

His monochrome paintings are made line-by-line as if seeing the world through night vision goggles.

Scott Stack’s meticulously rendered paintings are both process and content driven. His monochrome paintings are made line-by-line as if seeing the world through night vision goggles.  We are all too familiar (thanks CNN) with televised night vision imagery, and Stack considers carefully the images he chooses. Pictures of airplanes and the crash site of Lady Di may not seem out of place in their implied destruction. However, when the lens is turned to cool Bauhaus architecture, the Buckingham Fountain, and even a snowman one begins to question this reality.
