Bas Louter.

 

.

In this new series, Louter draws on archived historical imagery, elements of entertainment, and narrative traditions like film noir to create a haunting series of figures and objects veiled in obscurity of time or place. His portrayals lay bare a fascination with the idea of collective misremembering and the distortion of meaning that occurs over time, as inevitably memory is infected by movies, books and other media.

Bas Louter was recently included in a group exhibition at Fruehsorge Contemporary Drawings, Autocenter in Berlin, and Arti et Amicitiae in Amsterdam. His work has been exhibited at Aqua Art Fair Miami, Project(OR) Rotterdam and Swab Art Fair Barcelona. Conjointly with this exhibition, Louter will also present large scale drawings at Ambach & Rice Gallery in Seattle.

Please, join us for the opening reception on Saturday, January 31st. The artist will be in attendance.
