Gremillion & Co.
10:00am - 5:00pm
Robert Rector
Come see the fusion between minimalism and expressionism with paintings by Robert Rector from 10:00 - 5:00. Robert Rector received his M.F.A. from Louisiana State University in 1973. For the last twenty years his work has been concentrated with the reconciliation of his two major influences: abstract expressionism and minimalism. The resulting consolidation and evolution of these two seemingly opposing movements have consistently provided solid painting, incorporating raw gestural beauty within a thoughtful geometrical structure.
