  • Gretchen Marie Schaefer Folding and Thrusting October 3 — January 19
    Fall 2019 Exhibition Gretchen Marie Schaefer October 3 — January 19, 2020 Folding and Thrusting Guest curated by Cortney Lane Stell Gretchen Marie Schaefer: Folding and Thrusting Folding and Thrusting presents new work by Denver-based artist Gretchen Marie Schaefer. Rooted in geology, the exhibition features a large- scale, dimensional painting and photographic works that combine geological abstraction with notions of perception. This exhibition expands on her most recent body of work that challenges our relationship with the earth, delving into the implicit power dynamics embedded in common ways of seeing the world. By challenging these common assumptions, Schaefer’s sculptural paintings and photographs explore the nature of vision and the cultural frameworks that bolster worldviews. Special thanks to Alicia Ordal, Kevin Raleigh, Jonathan Chaikin, and Ken and Kathy Schaefer for their support in the production of the work for this exhibition.
