Preston Singletary: Ancients Emerged from the Fire
The Traver Gallery is pleased to present Ancients Emerged from the Fire, a solo show featuring Seattle artist Preston Singletary. The exhibition highlights a selection of work from what Singletary refers to as his “modernist” period. The abstracted forms of these new sculptures are influenced by the work of artists such as Calder, Miro, and Noguchi, while the carved patterns adorning their surfaces represent a continuation of Singletary’s ongoing exploration of Northwest Native American form-line design.
