Rick Arnitz:
Rick Arnitz uses oil enamel and rollers to make paintings on canvas that not only present an evocative emotional atmosphere but also represent, in a trompe l'oeil fashion, what maybe be stacks of wood, skeins of cloth, or perhaps even the rollers themselves. His painted forms lie somewhere between abstraction and figuration with their striking reality combined with a vagueness of subject matter. Arnitz has had numerous solo and group shows since 1988 at venues including Stephen Wirtz Gallery, San Francisco; Galerie Zenit, Copenhagen, Denmark; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; and University Art Museum, Santa Barbara, California.
Rick Arnitz received his MFA from the University of California at Berkeley and is represented locally by Stephen Wirtz Gallery in San Francisco.
